  allostatic load

  Junie Désil

  Désil explores the concept of care, in its many forms and its intersections with race and justice, in this collection of innovative and poignant poems. Ableism, misogyny, and anti-Black racism are confronted in forms that range from medical questionnaires to concrete poems to emails, and in narratives of chronic pain, workplace stress, and eventual healing on the land as a new farmer.
