Collected in this volume are Chelsey Minnis's first two books: Zirconia (winner of the Alberta Prize) and Bad Bad. Zirconia introduced a speaker described as "half-smirking, half-weeping" by the Village Voice. Minnis heralded the gurlesque, a term coined for the occasion and defined as "a feminine, feminist incorporating of the grotesque and cruel with the spangled and dreamy." This poet's rapt, driven affect and glazed wit heralded a new strategy in the mitigation of female self-hatred in poetry.
