A bold, playful, poetic exploration of sex, gender, and identity. "I am in bed with you. The room varies. But I’m always on the left. I am pulling the pieces of myself into myself. In the winter I left myself behind in the 90s. I’m coming back now. You can see the light touching me. I can see layers of tissue finally making a body. And once I have a body I have a head. And in my head are these thoughts." -From ‘I am in bed with you’ Playful and fluid but completely serious, Emma Barnes’s surreal phantasmagoria I Am in Bed with You leads us through the very personal worlds of sex, gender, and the body. Barnes cracks jokes, makes us uncomfortable, shows us a little tenderness, leaves a lot unsaid, and does it all with language that provokes and confounds. ‘I’m a mentally ill, / married, chronically ill, queer woman with two feet underground, ‘ the author reveals. ‘I birth Sigourney Weaver’s android baby, ‘ they tell us next. This collection is personal and fantastical, funny and excruciating. It’s poetry in the process of unravelling most of what you thought you knew.
