Description
Clayre Benzadón's award-winning debut full-length poetry collection, Moon as Salted Lemon, is a queering of form and language which interrogates the intersections of Sephardic Jewish, American, and nonbinary identity.Clayre Benzadón's multilingual poetry utilizes language and formal experimentation to interrogate the limits of language, gender, and culture. Benzadón places special focus on the phenomenological body and the somatic practices of poetry.
Expansive in its themes, Moon as Salted Lemon, explores sex, the queer body, popular culture, history, and Sephardic Jewish identity using both personal experience and expansive historical research which transforms a section of the book into documentary poetics of the history of Jewish people in Spain.
Overall, this book is about the intersections that exist in the world, that perhaps nothing is a binary. Nonbinary Identity is, in fact, the core.
Moon as Salted Lemon, winner of Driftwood Press's Editor's Pick Prize, is a tight, current, and expansive collection which will challenge and inspire poetry readers of all kinds. It is particularly well-suited to those interested in gender, experimentation, and history.
