Poetry and comics collide in this
intersectional feminist anthology featuring twenty-one stories that explore the
relationship between gender, identity and the body. A diverse array of
award-winning contemporary poets and comic book artists who identify as cis
women, trans, and non-binary, work together to create sequential art poems
showcasing the relevance, urgency, and power of both
genres.

Beautifully illustrated and bracingly
written, EMBODIED is a memorable collaboration between cis female, trans, and
non-binary poets and comics artists showcasing the power of both forms in a
stunningly unique keepsake volume that will be treasured for
ages.

Mystical, rooted, painful, joyous, and
ecstatic; visions of the body, our genders, and our very identities from across
the spectrum of contemporary poetry come together in this monumental
intersectional feminist anthology where verse and comics unite in spectacular
new ways.

Featuring poetry by national
bestseller Maggie Smith, Pulitzer Prize finalist Diane Seuss, and National
Endowment of the Arts fellowship recipients Kendra DeColo, Jennifer Givhan,
Vanessa Angelica Villarreal, Kayleb Rae Candrilli, Ruth Awad, and Paul
Tran.

a process art section.
