If You Keep Making That Shameface

<p>The poems in If You Keep Making that Shameface... explore how shame shapes women. These poems by a WV poet travel the backroads of female identity to unearth the social cultural geographic and personal landscapes where women lose themselves. With brash heartache and hunger this debut collection unearths a time capsule that lays bare the tangled roots and deep rot shame breeds while discovering some of the vulnerability savvy and resilience needed to reclaim the self by dropping the weight of shame.</p>
