Restlessly inquisitive, it exposes the shifting power balance between things on the verge of becoming and the forces that threaten to destroy them.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eReading these poems, we have the sense of encountering a series of filmic installations arranged by episode in a gallery. Lost, censored or disparaged voices speak out from secluded spaces and moments of hidden history: from within a professor's office and a deserted department store; from kitchens, bedrooms, hallways and upstairs windows; through changing weathers, fidgety shadows and the witching hour.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGirlhood concludes with a sequence set in a psychiatric hospital that reimagines Jacques Lacan's treatment of his most famous case study, Marguerite Pantaine. This dramatic meeting of minds has us questioning who is the more delusional - doctor or patient: like other victims in this exhilarating new collection, Marguerite may initially appear vanquished, but a closer look reveals how little of herself she has really surrendered.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePerfect for: birthdays, birthdays, Christmas, cat lover gifts, family gifts, thank you gifts\u003cbr\u003ebirthdays, Mother's Day, International Women's Day, poetry gifts, graduation\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA thoughtful gift for: poetry lovers, mothers, daughters, teachers, students, contemporary poetry readers\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCategories: contemporary poetry, women's writing, feminist literature, literary gifts, British poetry\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNarrator: \u003cbr\u003eAndrew Stevenson\u003cbr\u003eLength: 1 hr and 13 mins\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAVAILABLE IN THE UK ONLY\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Audiobook in a Card","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":65271300358493,"sku":null,"price":12.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0899\/0402\/1853\/files\/Faber-Thumbnail-Girlhood.jpg?v=1784214304","url":"https:\/\/audiobookinacard.com\/products\/girlhood","provider":"Audiobook in a Card","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
