Sweet Weight

By Kate Lynn Hibbard

Poetry. LGBT Studies. "In this remarkable second collection, Kate Lynn Hibbard has brilliantly created a lexicon of arguing and art, religion and women's lives. In precise language and varying forms, Hibbard digs into the meaning of words, loss, and love in he keen observations of flowers, neighbors, birds, condoms, snow, and parents. Not afraid of traditional forms, the detritus of sex, or a stray pantless Barbie, Hibbard's poems shimmer with heat like a car stalled on the side of a summer freeway, surprise with their fresh images, such as comparing an artichoke to Marilyn Monroe. Spontaneous and researched, pruned yet wild, edited but honest, wise but playful, this book celebrated the generosity of the female body, our joyous but flawed gardens, our unresolved and naked pasts."
