You're the one for me, Fatty (Book Review)

Fat Girl - Jessie Carty  A-

Fat Girl by Jessie Carty is a collection of poems that are memorable, authentic, and in a manner of speaking, naked. I love the imagery and reality these poems evoke. Much like the Woman of Willendorf, Fat Girl is a work of art that lets it all hang out. My favorites include:

Woman of Willendoff: The Artifact
Basic Geometry
Fat Girl at the OB/GYN
Class Reunion
I'm Trying Weight Watchers
Persephone
