Perfume Samples by Amelia Gillis
“Amelia Gillis offers a mystical, searching poetics of the suburban Midwestern girl’s-girl. Playful and silly, plaintive and profound, sensual and defiant, her poems ask how we can stay connected to a world that wounds, governs, and conditions us without giving up our vitality and mystery. She finds her answers in the healing forces of care, feminine kinship, and familiar worldly comforts. Diet Coke, disco fries, smoking, and hanging out on the phone are the restorative sacraments of her faith, her spiritual evidence that life, despite its betrayals and disappointments, remains fundamentally sacred and lovable.” —Duncan Malashock, author of The Philosophy of Staying in Harness
