Sense Violence

By Helena Boberg

Poetry. Women's Studies. Translated by Johannes G?ransson. In this first full-length English-language translation of the work of Helena Boberg, we are powerfully confronted with what she has called a creative testimony that points out patterns of injustice, sexism, and violence in the society we inhabit. A book-length poem, SENSE VIOLENCE hinges on the dichotomy of a masculine will to power and a call to action for a feminine collective to confront it on all corners--from mythologies to cultural tropes and ingrained hierarchies. Translated by Johannes G?ransson, the English edition faithfully captures all of Boberg's wordplay and linguistic richness bringing this urgent and uniquely-voiced work to a new audience.
