Morphology - Paperback

Morphology, by definition, is the study of the forms of words and bodies. In her second book, Erica Miriam Fabri uses the formation of words-molded into poems-to celebrate and mourn various forms of bodies. The bodies featured as main characters in this collection include lovers, family members, children, ghosts, rats, jellyfish, skeletons, and snakes. Morphology is a collection of lush, intimate, love poems and precise narratives of grief and longing. While this book of poetry is set mostly in New York City, it also journeys to far-flung destinations such as outer space, the deep sea, and the afterlife.
