Bartending for a Stamp with My Face on It

By Kate Garcia

In Bartending for a Stamp with My Face on It, Kate Garcia writes poems of wanting and loneliness, poems that attempt to negotiate power with men and trust in one's own body and desires. These poems follow a woman in her 20s thinking deeply about growing up and growing old, learning how to care for herself and, of course, her dog. As much an ode to as a criticism of the service industry, this collection speaks to the ways in which we find beauty in ugliness, meaning in magpies and lime wedges.
