A powerful poetry collection by Jac Jenkins that explores the weight women carry under centuries of societal expectation, and the possibility of one day putting it down. Fiery, physical, and deeply musical verse for readers who want poetry with guts and intellect.
Girl has empty baskets, blooming sky. Girl has moon full of pink atoms in her hands, full of pale, full of long-time-ago. So solid it must have soul.
Pythagoras said "There is a good principle that created order, light, and man and a bad principle that created chaos, darkness, and woman." Moon Too Heavy explores many of the ways in which women carry this weight, and how they might find it in themselves one day to cast it off.
"Jac Jenkins' work has guts and intellect and a deep current of physical delight. These are fiery and thinking poems." - Anna Smaill
"Because it has a confident musicality and an artful physicality, which I am always drawn to. And because it contains just the right amount of poems, nothing more, which I am always impressed by and jealous of... Moon Too Heavy is a weird little book about life that I loved very much." - Sam Duckor-Jones
