Shonda Buchanan

4.9/5 (20310 ratings)

Description:In Equipoise: Poems from Goddess Country, poet Shonda Buchanan reweaves the broken strands of woman, an identity once revered, now defiled. She plucks threads from Egypt, from ancient Greece; binds strands of hair, silk of spiders, twine of witches, filaments of Mary Magdalene's tattered veil into whole cloth in which to wrap herself, a fabric that allows her female being its magnificence. She offers us, her female readers, this robe and bids us try it on, so we might speak, with her, "They say the world was born/Between my thighs...I am, despite myself, a goddess/ With ... an earth to raise." Buchanan knits history and mystery, acknowledging women's dual powers to create and to destroy, and reveals the tapestry of a world that has always been, but which has been too long buried."--Terry Wolverton, author, EmbersWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
