Often, the fact of being an individual can seem wildly at odds with
the experience of containing multitudes. In Luxury, Blue Lace, S.
Brook Corfman takes the reader through this complicated experience
of selfhood and its multitudes, exploring the many overlapping
identities a single person can contain. Corfman's poems conjure a
host of identities and selves both living and dead, gesturing
towards the complex way memory and loss can inhabit us. Formed by
experience, history, and the strictures of gender, the poems dwell
on the challenges of fully knowing and understanding the diverse
parts of a subject. While they seek out a full form for the
individual, they also relish the complex multiplicity of the
identities that arise through self-exploration and self-knowledge.
Luxury, Blue Lace was the winner of the Autumn House Rising Writer
Prize in 2018.
