The lifting dress / Lauren Berry. by Berry, Lauren. Penguin Books, 2011. Call #: 811.6 B5342L Subjects American poetry -- 21st century. Series National poetry series.   Penguin poets. ISBN:  9780143119654 (pbk.) 0143119656 (pbk.) Description:  64 p. ; 23 cm. Notes:  Poems. Winner of Penguin's National Poetry Series for 2010, selected by Terrance Hayes. Summary:  "Lauren Berry's bracing and emotionally charged first collection of poetry delivers visions of a gothic South that Flannery O'Connor would recognize. Set in a feverish swamp town in Florida, The Lifting Dress enters the life of a teenage girl the day after she has been raped. She moves silently toward adulthood in a community that offers beauty but denies apology. Through lyric narratives, readers watch her shift between mirroring and rejecting the anxious swelter of her world, until she ultimately embraces it with the same violent affection once tendered to her. Lauren Berry lives in Houston."--Back cover.
