In \u003cem\u003eBuzzkill Clamshell\u003c\/em\u003e, her third poetry collection, Amber Dawn circumvents the expectations of so-called confessional poetry, offering twisted mythmaking, extreme hyperbole, and lyrical gutter-mouthing that explore themes of sick and disabled queerness, aging, and desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith poems populated by severed heads, domme swan maidens, horny oracles, and other horrible purveyors of pleasure, \u003cem\u003eBuzzkill Clamshell\u003c\/em\u003e reads as if a leather dyke and a demonic goat had a baby―gleefully embracing the perverse while stomping its way through chronic pain and complex PTSD.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAlready acclaimed for her candid and often kinky verse, Amber Dawn pushes further into trauma-informed eroticism with self-assured irreverence and uncomfortable abjectivity. Beneath her brilliant, carnivalesque imagery lies a prayer―not for the pain to end, but for finding fantastic new ways to cope with it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n","brand":"Amber Dawn","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48278171812091,"sku":"9781551529790","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/9781551529790.jpg?v=1772484718","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/buzzkill-clamshell-9781551529790","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
