This was such a creative work; I have never seen poetry and visual art combined in this way. There is such a huge amount of diversity not just in the author's identities, but the art styles, poetry forms, and subjects of each piece. I truly think there is a piece for everyone in here; my personal favorites were "Capitalism Ruins Everything, Including Witchcraft" and "Tapestry." A lot of the poems used very lyrical, free verse style poetry, which at times were hard to interpret (I imagine it would be especially hard for someone new to the genre), but they reiterate the poem without the drawing at the end of each section, and I think the study guides in the back are very helpful. Overall, I think this is a stunning piece of literature that I think is perfect for fans of poetry, visual arts, feminism, and the human experience.
