Super Undone Blue

Sarah Anne Cox

Super Undone Blue is all at sea, teeming with ghost ships and marine voices, mythic and historic, while contemporary children with ancient names skirt the edges. Distressed with layers of "pealing paint," it scumbles history in fraught, tender language that undoes and leaves undone, ongoingly. Kate Colby

Praise for this book

"Agamemnon was a dick / I didn't know him but I've heard." It's totally true, right? Sarah Anne Cox's terrific new Super Undone Blue is a book of reports from a field expanded by her particular and weird imagination-angry and honest poems which accommodate figures from Medea to Pussy Riot. This work speaks on behalf of the persecuted, trafficked, damned, abandoned women of mythology and history, and in this way, Super Undone Blue proposes a radical new genealogy for our still-fucked present. Cox knows that we too easily recapitulate what we have too often capitulated to. It's hard work, it's mad work. I am grateful for Cox's music and refusal.' Brandon Brown
