Description

For all who inhabit a body and wonder about its place in the universe. Through lyric essays and poetry, Christina Kukuk finds the spiritual in the most material bodily experiences: a twenty-one-year-old heroin addict, the mother who plants an orchard in his memory, a girl's tumble through food scarcity, an adolescent awakening to infatuation at summer camp, and a woman waiting hours for her lover's recovery on a hospital's transplant floor. Earthy and divine, funny at times, these pages invite readers into an adoration of the body-birth, food, love, pain, death, and water become skin-wrapped windows into the holy.

The shipping was just superior

The shipping was just superior; not even one of the books was in contact with the shipping box -anywhere-, not even a corner or the bottom, so all the books arrived in perfect condition. The international shipping took around 2 weeks, so pretty great too.

Found a hard to get book…

Finding a hard to get book on Booksplease and with it not being an over inflated price was great. Ordering was really easy with updates on despatch. The book was packaged well and in great condition. I will certainly use them again.
