Some Other Stupid Fruit

Margaret Bashaar

4/5 ( ratings)

A chapbook from Agape Editions' Morning House series.

"'I know / there is violence in all of us,' these 'problematic feminist' poems assert. This work reminds us that what is truly problematic is poetry devoid of awareness of complexity and complicity, and feminism without nuance. Some Other Stupid Fruit lays bear the strangeness, the rot, and the inherent hypocrisies of our gendered identities, and refuses to put a cherry on top."
—Arielle Greenberg

"Musings on maneuvering through the rapey ol' patriarchy, Margaret Bashaar's newest chapbook hits the ground in heels kicking for the artery. In case you haven't been listening to her poetry thus far, Some Other Stupid Fruit all but grabs your stupid face and wills its words to crack your orbital bones and release the gooey insides of your eyes. Honest, brutal observations in rapid succession, enough to leave the reader concussed. The roar of a self-aware woman in today's asshat weird world. Some Other Stupid Fruit is an airtight collection. Don't be a jerk, read the book."
—John Thomas Menesini, author of Gloom Hearts & Opioids
