📖 Cadaver, Speak

The hook to this book is full-flower in a quote from Marianne Boruch, describing her time in the cadaver lab: “The cadaver nevertheless pushed me aside to speak for herself, to give her take on dissection and her long life on the planet before she generously gave her body that those doctors-to-be might learn crucial secrets.”…and another quote: “Some books begin as a dare to the self.” Boruch is the most recent winner of the Kingsley Tufts Poetry Award
