Using a mixture of poetic forms varying in subject, shape, style, and size, purl reimagines timeless myths from Homer’s Odyssey. Stitched from classical translations, verses honoring feminine forces swirl across modern epic landscapes. This poignant debut collection, inspired by the poetry of Phillis Wheatley Peters, amplifies a chorus of the marginalized: queens and maidens, mothers and daughters, wives and mistresses, goddesses and slaves, “brimming with songs/ muffled voices rarely heard.” With each page turn, readers are invited to celebrate the resilience of women bound by those universal traumas threaded through literature and life.
