Description:A luminous new collection from Keetje Kuipers, All Its Charms is a fearless and transformative reckoning of identity. By turns tender and raw, these poems chronicle Kuipers’ decision to become a single mother by choice, her marriage to the woman she first fell in love with more than a decade before giving birth to her daughter, and her family’s struggle to bring another child into their lives. All Its Charms is about much more than the reinvention of the American family―it’s about transformation, desire, and who we can become when we move past who we thought we would be.We drive home from the lake, sand in our shoes,the dart of fish faint at our ankles, eachshuttered BBQ shack a kudzu flashin my side mirror. Pleasure has becomethe itch of a mosquito bite betweenmy shoulders, and your rough thumb on my thigha tickle gentle as turtles bobbingin Sea-Doo oil slick and cellophane scraps.How many years did I suffer the lovesthat gave too much freedom and not enoughtenderness? Let me be like the man wesaw outside of Notasulga, hands cuffedbehind his back, cigarette in his mouth,and you be the sheriff, leaning in close,cupping the sweet flame to my waiting face.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
