With the authority of Plath and the remove of Moore, Towne's speakers talk back to the very notion of the Surreal. For as long as viewers have delighted witnessing the premiere Surrealists (mostly male) subvert the paradigm of the female body on a figurative level, women themselves have experienced the sheer torture that is the physicality this humorous invention inflicts. These poems are themselves exhibits in response to the exhibitionism of such artists. Towne's real-live show down is thrillingly ambitious and delightful to witness.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e-\u003cb\u003e\u003cb\u003eCate Marvin\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e, author of \u003ci\u003e\u003ci\u003eEvent Horizon\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Ruth Towne\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1639807306\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781639807307\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Kelsay Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/21\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 122\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.38lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.26d\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ruth Towne","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46962349703423,"sku":"9781639807307","price":23.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_e21dfc8d-4fec-4a2b-b66f-ed42c3051e96.jpg?v=1750650091","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/resurrection-of-the-mannequins-ruth-towne-9781639807307","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
