jenn marie nunes • LIKE ME
Poetry. 2025. 85 pages. Edited by Janae Mancheski
A haunting and humorous examination of girlhood and coming into queerness presented in epic form, composed in slacker mantras which perpetually rearrange themselves and provide new clarity with each appearance. At its queer, keening heart, this is a collection about coming of age and breaking through the skin of an ill-fitting womanhood passed from mother to daughter for generations. It is a proliferation of bodies, a proliferation in the body, a mass of things creeping. Like Me speaks with intellect and insight that leaves you feeling more like you.
