"A candid and passionate consideration of citizenship viewed through the feminine, O Cidadan examines borders in language and in the body, exploring ways in which we might rethink nation and community in our era. The poems pulse; they shift and overlap, echo, and capture sensual and political hinges in our social topography. Drawing on puns, shadows, images, charts, crosswords, computer generation, lyric, and essay, Moure's poetic forms belie any settled, safe habitation of the page - extending the textual possibilities of language and expression as she grapples with how we might exist as citizens."--BOOK JACKET.
