Blue Sketch Press is happy to announce the forthcoming publication of Amy David‘s No Body Home.
In her debut full-length collection, Amy David writes with both humor and alacrity about the experience of moving through the world as a woman. Spanning topics from awkward bar-flirting to familial relationships, from aging to sexual violence, No Body Home rubs sugar into the wounds.
The paperback volume is available for sale online and at select bookstores.
