Tallmadge strips away our soft exteriors and exposes the feral desires which escape from their cages when facing the possibility of death. \u003cem\u003eSweet Beast \u003c\/em\u003ereflects a marriage wounded by the aftermath of a soldier's return from war, relating trauma in the only way it can be told: raw and with no embellishment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTallmadge creates excruciating images onto the page, nurses them, and lets the poems bleed out. In cars kneading coyotes into asphalt, birds knifing through wind, and the torturous fear of death that transforms us into beasts, Tallmadge cuts to the bone to find love within the formidable survival instincts of our primitive self. \u003cem\u003eSweet Beast\u003c\/em\u003e is a collection that is as rife with love as much as it is searing with fear, demanding the reader to pivot between the two.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 86\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.21 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e July 01, 2021\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42728079917119,"sku":"9781949487060","price":24.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0105\/8226\/1823\/files\/052584e86b82463cf9963d9bc208fe21.webp?v=1765117186","url":"https:\/\/dhlswag.com\/products\/sweet-beast-paperback","provider":"BBB","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
