Teens /
Lisette, Francesca.
Cambridge, U.K. : Mountain Press,
2012.
"Teens is deeply influenced by the intellectual climate and sea-charged air of Brighton, where Lisette lived whilst studying at the University of Sussex for five years. Approximating feminist phenomenology through a syntax of borrowed and misheard phrases; saturated with code-language, its philosophical outlook pre-savaged by the Frankfurt School & Situationism; this work traces a geography of body and spirit encountering battles both within & outside itself. At the centre of this collection is 'Casebook', straddling the boundaries between performance text, prose poem and lyric. Lisette's first collection is reprinted in full alongside poems addressing the student protests of late 2010, and previously unpublished poems"--Publisher's website.
