“Devlin is everywhere all at once, and takes you there. This is writing with a heartbeat—sensorial, experiential—from a person who sees how she is seen, drifting among the city’s myriad catcalls and pratfalls, taking note. Self-aware and wry, these poems regale with tales of birthing and being (and witching), investigating a world full of desire, transient but savored, relishing in sex and the incantatory libido of language...This is an open love letter to life, reader, biting and curious, and startlingly good.”
“For poet, musician, and visual artist Elizabeth Devlin, motherhood is a stark continuum: at one end lies the dissolution of the self, while delicious embodiment occupies the other. From Far Rockaway to family court, Devlin dramatizes the marvels and societal letdowns of motherhood, as well as the sureness that the end of a marriage does not equate the end of love. Centering survival and the resilience of womanhood Milk Spine makes for an urgent, lyrical debut.”
