Meat Lovers - Paperback
by Rebecca Hawkes (Author)
A tenderly devastating look at our cows and ourselves by a remarkable new poet.
Rebecca Hawkes's Meat Lovers explores the visceral connections between humans and animals, desire and disgust, and the rural landscape and the body. These poems delve into the complexities of queer identity in a world of meat production, environmental concerns, and personal transformation.
With striking imagery and experimental language, Hawkes confronts mortality, loss, and the search for meaning in a world where beauty and horror intertwine. This collection is for readers of contemporary poetry, those interested in rural themes, LGBTQ+ individuals, and anyone who appreciates writing that is both challenging and deeply moving.
