“This collection feels like an invitation to a sleepover… with all the giggles, secrets, warmth and fun that implies” – Girlonthenet
Jenet E. Le Lacheur‘s debut collection, Potry, celebrates the creative potentialities of a certain medicinal herb that must remain nameless.
Join Jen on a queer journey of witty wordfoolery that’ll take you from Tautonym Court Road (Elizabeth Line / Or Elizabeth Line Line? No-one seems to know), via Balamory, all the way to Polyamory. If you’re very well-behaved, you might even get to meet the metamours you haven’t met yet…
Disclaimer: This slim volume may inspire you to aspire towards your own dizzy heights of poetic randomness, or even random poeticness. Following any advice that you might discern within these pages is highly inadvisable. The author and publisher accept no liability for the consequences.
Potry has received some blistering reviews:
“Jenet uses a couple lines at a time as a vehicle for a delightfully lush hedonism. The collection is bare, but not remotely cold. Somehow – and don’t ask me how – she finds room for warmth, humour, rage, bitterness and a bunch of other feelings besides. I’ve laughed and I’ve winced. I’ve felt both seen and beautifully alienated.” – Maz Hedgehog, poet, theatre-maker, author of Vivat Regina and The Body in Its Seasons
“These unguarded moments are truly beautiful and funny and horny and all of the things that I absolutely adore. This collection feels like an invitation to a sleepover… with all the giggles, secrets, warmth and fun that implies.’ – Girl on the Net
