* Experimental blending of visual poetry and traditional verse. * Visual / experimental poetry by a woman in a field dominated by men. * Timely discussions of personhood, belonging, human rights, ancestry, our relationship with / working with the land. * By interrogating and plundering the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms, this work forms a feminist interrogation of patriarchal, colonial, and legal scripts of being and personhood. * A poetic wrestling with foundational nation-state documents in North America, similar to Tracy K. Smith’s poem “Declaration” (Wade in the Water, Graywolf) and the United States’ Declaration of Independence. * Siklosi asks what humans can stand to learn from listening to the trees talk to one another, from tapping into the languages under our feet and above our heads. Readers are certainly interested in this topic in both fiction and nonfiction, as evidenced by the massive success of books ranging from Finding the Mother Tree and The Hidden Life of Trees to The Overstory and Greenwood. * Exploration of the rich history of women's handicraft as a feminist poetic praxis. * Ecocritical and feminist in tone, and with a healthy dollop of social justice, Selvage would appeal to anyone interested in poetry that blurs boundaries across different genres and formats, those who enjoy some politics with their poetry, as well as those who enjoy poems about nature and our precarious place within it.
