- Summary:
- "Eleanor Eleanor and Kathryn Cowles were spooled side by side like thread until Eleanor abruptly disappeared. In the wake of Eleanor's leaving, Cowles lovingly compiles her unspooled residual poetry, full-color collages, and captions into this exquisite 'fossil record,' this ekphrasis-turned-on-its-head 'partial catalog.' In Kathryn Cowles's deliciously innovative third book, Eleanor lays bare the depths of the confines still facing women in Western life, even while we're told we're free to choose. She affixes wings to feminine figures cut out of magazines, asks, is there a way beyond? A way to real freedom, to a femininity that looks and acts however we choose?"--Publisher's website.
