What makes us run? Why are we standing there? And what’s that armadillo doing? In Adeline Chevrier-Bosseau’s book, all of these questions have something to do with men. Reeling in a souvenir zoetrope beset by memories of what becomes of intimacy in a patriarchal world, echoes of Rihanna and Emily Dickinson and Ariel inflect the sky of a calendar year, spinning slowly, slowly, pained unseen and smiling, laughing even, on the good days, on the not so very bad days. The book a burden and a vector to escape, you exit out the other side, an arrow carrying so much of you with you, the dream warps, verse unburdens, almost entirely. Adeline’s incarnadine variatons on a theme run read, First Blood.
