From the publisher

A pamphlet of poems by Simone Atangana Bekono, translated from Dutch by David Colmer.

“My silhouette opened her mouth and said
‘I exist because your body exists
Cronus devouring his children
as bloodthirsty as Goya painted him
a body become unrecognisable
greedy and chaotic
not rooted in the earth’”
