{"product_id":"a-camouflage-of-specimens-and-garments-9781936797752","title":"A Camouflage of Specimens and Garments","description":"In her third full-length collection of poems, Jennifer Militello weaves fragmentary letters addressing illness and struggle through ventriloquisms of mythological heroes and dead composers, ancient goddesses and murdered girls. Stylized \"dictionaries\" open into lay-ered definitions meant like magical clothing or tutelary amulets to provide shelter from a world that cannot be controlled. As the poet stitches together a plethoric identity to ex-plore disguises, A Camouflage of Specimens and Garments casts a smokescreen of selves.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eMilitello, Jennifer:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Jennifer Militello is the author of three poetry collections published by Tupelo Press: FLINCH OF SONG (2009), winner of the Tupelo Press First Book Award, BODY THESAURUS (2013), named a finalist for the Alice Fay di Castagnola Award by Marilyn Hacker, and A CAMOUFLAGE OF SPECIMENS AND GARMENTS (2016).
