About the Book

Bluebeard in Drag re-embodies the unsaid of our stories about family and memory. Tracy Ryan’s poems examine the Gothic workings of power within the family, its incursions into the body, and how the body might resist, survive, and even heal.
Powerful, controlled and searingly honest, Bluebeard in Drag is compelling as an exploration of the resources of poetry, and as a human document.
