Inhaltsangabe

  • Gurlesque is a kistchy, campy take on feminism. Gurlesque is an Avant Garde view of feminism which followed many of the same ideas of disrupting gender roles that allowed the Kinderwhore look and Riot Grrrl "movement" to take hold. The works assault norms of acceptable female behavior by irreverently deploying gender stereotypes to subversive ends.
  • Appearance at the 2020 Association of Writers and Writing Programs (AWP) Conference & Bookfair, San Antonio, TX, March 4–7, 2020
Emily Corwin's sensorium is a gurlesque party, is lush and anxious and blossoming with rot. In her second collection, Corwin investigates the textures of physical and psychic pain—the celluloid of classic horror films, greasy computer screens and text messages, ballrooms and hallways and pig blood, surgical instruments, lipsticks, medication, teenage romance and demons. sensorium considers the beauty in body horror, the viscera boiling under a pretty crust.
