In her striking first collection, scholar/author Jennifer Bates writes about the nature of womanhood through the story of Eve. Bates shifts between poems which speak through powerful female figures of myth and religious history to poems in a personal, contemporary voice that confront sexual violence, miscarriage, and mental illness.
