Continuity Girl

by Chris Tysh

Poetry. Bold, erudite, witty, feminist and elegantly elegiac, CONTINUITY GIRL is a sweet surrender that works on the senses with its consummate dissonance and fierce lingual passion. The language moves and jags are revelatory: 'She is tired/ of explaining the etymology/ I hear it now: ska yellow fufu/ sucking teeth in/ between bites.' Chris Tysh rules with this major collection -- Anne Waldman.
