Set between the violent realm of patriarchy and the bright otherworld of female agency and survival, these are poems of pointed humour and quick intellect, radical exposure and (re)vision. At Marvin's table, the knife of domesticity becomes a threat, sharpened and shined. Misogyny pulls the sheets from the bed; motherhood wails from the backseat of the car; our hero is ghosted (abandoned, haunted) by past friends and beloveds. \u003cem\u003eEvent Horizon\u003c\/em\u003e asks, at what point do we disappear into our experiences?
