Description
xA Brief History of Accidental Inventions explores the emotionally fraught territory of pregnancy, birth, and early motherhood. By equal measures harrowing and humorous, the collection chronicles the speaker's freefall into postpartum depression against the backdrop of American gun culture and the repeal of Roe v. Wade. The poems peer keenly into texts from Kristeva to Kim Kardashian's Instagram account as the speaker searches for clarity in her new role as a mother. With a voice both lyrical and brash, Craft confronts challenges of embodiment and violence alongside the overwhelming experience of maternal love.
