City Scattered: Cabaret for Four Voices

Tyler Mills

Goblets of gin, fans of feathers, war-bombed bricks, loaves of bread, soot, smoke, and paper money--such are the tangible things that touched the lives of women who worked as wage laborers during an era of Europe of cabaret and hyperinflation. The crises of modernity and capital, as well as the human experiences of women and who loved, lost, and fought against the structures of privilege that all the while aided them during a fraught stretch of time between wars, come alive in City Scattered, a chapbook of poems that invite us to experience and examine the conditions of labor that echo those of our current day.
