AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Cassandra Atherton's Exhumed is a book of intertextual echoes in which, as Lisa Gorton asserts in the cover blurb, "the speaker [can be] characterized by desire-alike for love, glamour, sex, food, consumer goods and a life as real as it seems in fiction." In another collection of prose poems (Trace, Findlay Lloyd, 2015), Atherton is described as "a poet, critic, and balletomane" (n.p.); what seems clearest is that in her dance with language and canon, identity and affect, Exhumed harnesses and displays canny powers of both precision and grace.'
