Framework of the Human Body ebook
An anthology of writing about the human body and what it carries
**includes both mobi and epub format
This anthology is about the untold stories we carry on our skin and in our bones: a shoulder blade, a brain, a womb… At some point in our lives, we look in the mirror and suddenly notice our bodies in a sort of visceral way.
The writers in this collection tell stories of these moments. From fiction about an AI nanny with Alzheimer’s disease, to an essay about reading Andre Dubus II during postpartum depression. From a poem about food diaries, to a script about slowly vanishing body parts. The range of storytelling in Framework of the Human Body all connects with the physical oddity of bodies and the sacrifices we make to keep them intact.
