Riassunto

"The poems in Kinesthesia are wonderfully personal, familial, quirky and crafty. 'They sleep upright in the throat,' as Stephanie Johnson writes in 'City of Stomach, City of Throat,' and find their way into our blood streams and our night dreams."Diane Glancy

Stephanie Johnson, adept in alternative and complementary medicine, has worked as a birth doula. She speaks, both tender and surreal, in a choir of women's voices to women, healers, bodyworkers, aficionados of mythology, and to anyone seeking spiritual solace in the natural world or interested in understanding and healing the body/mind split.
