Skin. Hair. Bones.

<p><em>Skin. Hair. Bones. </em>is a body of carnal knowledge in poetic form. Equal parts excavation and incantation this poetry collection deconstructs desire as an act of emancipation from seduction's hold. In verse that marries conscience and corporeal poet Maria McLeod details the pursuit of intimacy and the pitfalls of its entanglements. Topics include love mortality sexuality fidelity and the body which are explored in carefully crafted free verse. For McLeod no subject is too tender to tackle and tease out resulting in the raw truth laid bare.</p>
