The Riot Grrrl Thing

By Sara Larsen

If the lyric tradition and literary history were a punk show then Sara Larsen' s The Riot Grrrl Thing would be a leather jacket-wearing, zine-making, raspy-voiced cry " girls to the front " It was the 90s in Philly and New Jersey; it was Ancient Greece, traversing and transcending time and space; " it was messy. It was art. It was libidinal." The Riot Grrrl Thing is what happens when women revolt, refuse to be managed, and instead " crash in RAGE WAVES" against a world rife with violence and constraint, against a realism that is " really hard / and rather / unsatisfactory." This collection is riotous in every capacity: both a hilarious, blunt reflection and an incisive political disturbance of the status quo.
