In her debut collection, Elizabeth Harlan-Ferlo depicts coming of age in a clergy household with playful and reverent ambivalence. The poems wrestle with sacred texts, family life, and sexuality with equal intimacy. Whether encountering the Eucharist, a cremation ghat, the red-light district, or literature, these poems can't stop asking questions about living in a body.
