Description
Through moving and incisive poetry, Crystal traces the arc of one woman's experience after the discovery that her partner is addicted to crystal meth.
In a highly original poetic act of reclamation, it plunders the drug itself and makes of it an overarching conceit to articulate the devastating impact of living with a loved one who is utterly changed.
Deeply felt and tirelessly inventive, this collection gives voice to addiction's explosive effect within a family. At the same time, it speaks universally and with urgency of the power of poetry to take one through the darkest of times.
