Blood sugar - Nicole Blackman

Unavailable since it blasted out of stock in its first printing, this is a disturbing and evocative collection of new work and selected poems from alt-rock diva and queen poetess Nicole Blackman. Her brutal accounts of obsession and beauty have made her a favourite contributor to the New York Times and the Village Voice as well as five major anthologies, including 'Aloud: Voices from the Nuyorican Poets Cafe', 'Verses that Hurt' and 'Poetry Nation'. She performs regularly on the underground scene with such other prominent figures as Lydia Lunch and Karen Finley.
