Blake Marcelle's poetry takes up the difficult task of cataloging the rages and forgivenesses of the body. With a furtive attention to detail, they explore a topography of personal and cultural memory, layering the sacred and the profane, the honest and the apocryphal, the wild and the ordinary, willing and inventing a new freedom. AS FOR THE BODY is a fearless, full-lunged, big-hearted debut. -MINDY NETTIFEE
