What gives us the right to listen to someone elses body?Alisha Dietzman, from Sweet Movie

A National Poetry Series winner selected by Victoria Chang, Sweet Movie confronts romantic and religious masochism to interrogate spiritual, sexual, and moral agency

Sweet Movies love poems and ekphrasis echo splintered versions of the same question: how do we navigate a world where the expectations of our performanceour presentation, our means of existenceare dictated by the viewers themselves?

Mirroring the uncertain, unstable tenor of Duan Makavejevs controversial avant-garde film Sweet Movie (1974), the voices in Sweet Movie are equal parts docile, feverish, and violent. This collection reimagines a feminist approach to religious masochism to explore the ways women are denied agency by both their faith communities and by outsiders.

Dietzmans poems move through locations across Central
