Her third collection of poetry, Claudia Rankine's Plot is original
and enchanting, and the language, as in her acclaimed The End of
the Alphabet, never ceases to startle and confront.
Plot is a postmodern dialogue about pregnancy and childbirth.
Liv, the expectant mother, and her husband, Erland, find themselves
propelled into one of our most basic plots -- boy loves girl, girl
gets pregnant. Liv's respect for life, however, makes her reluctant
to bring a new life into the world. The couple's electrifying
journey is charted through dreams, conversations, and reflections.
A text like no other, it crosses genres, existing at times in
poetry, at times in dialogue and prose, in order to arrive at new
life and baby Ersatz. This stunning, avant-garde performance enacts
what it means to be human, and to invest in humanity.
