Waking Roe: Stories and Poems in Honor of Choice

di Amy A. DeCew (Autore)

Amy A. DeCew, 2024

Everything's on the line, but the Supreme Court is off the rails. June 2022. The smell of lawyers hangs in the air as half the country scrambles to salvage their body parts from the latest deadly crash at the intersection of law and gender. Somewhere off in the distance, the dogs of politics bark. Armed only with an alienated laptop and an existential crisis, a down-on-her-luck writer spins through a kaleidoscope of responses about the raw loss of her reproductive rights. Scenarios surreal to sarcastic unfold, yet never seem too far from reality. By turns thoughtful, cynical, and darkly comedic, current events get thrown into the creative blender in an unconventional collection of short-form pieces. Religion, the housing market, healthcare, Big Tech, paychecks; they all meet at the intersection of rage, reflection, and female roles. In and beyond the lines of the abortion debate, interlinking puzzle pieces of essays and verse question more than one American premise. Somewhere along the way, history meets her own story. Enter the maze of genuine grief, alternate worlds, and twisted humor of a post-Roe woman on the edge. Please note: This content is intended for adults only. It features R-rated language and themes that may be upsetting for some readers. Discretion is advised.
