Description
x Winner of the Negative Capability Press Book Competition
Follow "Sister Nun"as she escapes over the wall of her convent (even though she has, in no way, been held captive) and read as she explores her identity, sexuality, and the path to enlightenment by wrestling alligators, vacationing in hell, and traveling through time and space during her 215 year lifespan.
"Weiland's book is polished, unusual and lovely - but it is even more than that. I don't remember when I read a book of poetry that I couldn't put down. Sister Nun is an unforgettable character - and this book that bears such a strong character's name reminds me of Jane Eyre, Emma, Anna Kerenina, and Lolita deserves to be in such elite company." - Amy King, author of The Missing Museum and I Want to Make You Safe; winner of the 2015 Tarpaulin Sky Book Prize.
