Rebecca Evans (whom we’ve interviewed) has recently released Tangled by Blood: A Memoir in Verse.
Unlike other memoirs, Tangled by Blood is not a tale of redemption, but one of hard-earned love and high stakes. Through a shifting POV, Tangled by Blood offers social commentary on abuse, sexual trauma, addiction, and suicide. The poems and prose in Tangled by Blood reflect, among many things, fractured intimacy. This fracturing influences every subsequent relationship—carrying scars and wounds throughout one’s life.
Tangled by Blood is available at Bookshop.org, Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and MoonTidePress.
