A feminist counterpart to Lincoln in the Bardo. Poet
Bianca Stone's new collection submerges the reader in burlesque
purgatory. Depicting a contemporary Hades, Stone revivifies ghosts
of women poets long past and eulogizes their fierce genius.--New
York Magazine
A little bit Inferno, but maybe even more so the
deliciously devilish No Exit, Stone's book is a strange,
entertaining journey into an underground world where poor souls are
'clinging to our tragedies, finding our favorite face.' . . .
You've never quite seen a poetic party like this.--The Millions
Meditative and darkly entertaining, vivid and visceral, a little
bit out-of-control, The Moebius Strip Club of Grief is
filled with tired bodies, bodies with scars, other women poets, and
members of Stone's own family -- including a grandmother who
herself is being grieved. This is a poetry collection like few
you'll come across.--Bustle
The Moebius Strip Club of Grief showcases a talent who is
bold, original and highly attuned to human suffering, though the
collection is not without moments of humor. Stone's wild and
ingenious exhibitionism exposes the psyche's innermost
sensitivities--a literary strip club for the soul.--Shelf Awareness
