A startling debut volume, the latest in Chris Abani's Black Goat Poetry Series. “Durbin’s debut volume sizzles . . . Throughout this deeply feminist, groundbreaking collection, she employs both the elemental forces of her intellect and a vigorous intensity of startling imagery to implode or explode conventional notions of sexuality and womanhood . . . This is a book that singes the fingertips.” —Maurya Simon, author of Cartographies Little Red Riding Hood, Jezebel, Catherine Breillat’s Fat Girl, Marilyn Monroe, Amelia Earhart, Pier Paolo Pasolini’s Christ—these are only a few of the archetypal and pop cultural characters that populate Kate Durbin’s strange and mesmerizing coming-of-age poetry collection, The Ravenous Audience.
