Each small vignette is a window into a life of macabre observation, quiet apathy, numbed survival and rage, dotted with moments of tenderness."</p><p>-Kai Coggin, author of <em>Mining for Stardust, Incandescent, </em> and <em>Wingspan</em></p><p><br></p><p>"With <em>Vanishing Below the Waist</em>, Ellie White eloquently gives voice to frequently silenced medical conditions that can be faced by people with vaginas, such as dyspareunia, vulvodynia, and endometrioma. <em>Vanishing Below the Waist</em> provides a brave and unflinching portrayal of living in a body that's riddled with question. These poems defy patriarchally constructed notions of shame without ever feeling preachy or pedantic. With elegant lyricism and spellbinding imagery, White's poems dazzle as much as they rage; they glitter and burn, sing pretty and haunt."</p><p>-Stevie Edwards, author of <em>Quiet Armor</em></p><br><br><b>Author:</b> Ellie White<br><b>Publisher:</b> Querencia Press, LLC<br><b>Published:</b> 02/16/2024<br><b>Pages:</b> 42<br><b>Binding Type:</b> Paperback<br><b>Weight:</b> 0.17lbs<br><b>Size:</b> 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.10d<br>
