Books by Julie Carr

Poetry that stands at the crossroads between the real and the supernatural, the actual and the imaginary

At once civil lyric and lament crying beyond civility, spiraling with kinetic intensity, a 21st century feminist book-length aria

The central subject in Julie Carr's debut poem collection is marriage. Intimacy is examined, not only in terms of the erotic, the quotidian, and the contractual, but also in terms of the intertextual: the pact between reader and writer and the blending of texts that results.
