A phenomenal, intense, in depth, detailed, and wonderful new Book Essay Review by Mike Bagwell at Philly Poetry Chapbook Review of Juliet Cook's newest poetry chapbook, "Your Mouth Is Moving Backwards" (Ethel Zine & Micro-Press)!
Here's one small piece of the review. You can read more via the link below that.
And then below that are links to where you can acquire the chapbook.
"The cover’s disembodied mouth and layers of facial abstraction stared up at me from a blood-red page as if ready to cry out. And as I read, food and candle wax inhabited the pages as readily as the poet’s words. The book became my own, just as its violence became my own. Every aspect of this book reflects its subject. Your Mouth is Moving Backwards is a thorough and fun examination of the grotesque made exquisite by its handbound form."

Hi Juliet,

I found Your Mouth is Moving Backwards very engaging and wanted to see if you would be interested in participating in an interview series (in which authors discuss their books as well as other books that are important to them). I am happy to share more information.
