Vertigo & Ghost: Poems

Viac o knihe

The book opens with a poignant poem exploring teenage sexuality, swiftly transitioning into a powerful critique of Zeus as a symbol of male aggression and exploitation. Through raw and impactful poetry, Fiona Benson confronts the historical and personal violence against women, dismantling the myth of Zeus and exposing the ongoing realities of sexual violence. This collection not only challenges the perception of power dynamics but also sheds light on the pervasive nature of misogyny in contemporary society.
