Wunderkammer

Within the world of Wunderkammer, or â€œcabinet of curiosities,â€ Cynthia Cruz archives the ruinous, the sparkling, the traumatic, and the decadent. These poems, through sensuous impressions, mimic what itâ€™s like to wake from a dream only to realize you are still inside the dream. We encounter gluttony pinned against starvationâ€”â€œceiling high cream cakes, / I ran twelve miles in my ballet leotardâ€ â€” and the glamorous mixed with the grotesque â€”â€œI follow a sequin / Thread of dead things.â€ Through â€œbrutal music,â€ Wunderkammer grips at the edges of memory and chaos; these poems have â€œfound the kill / And entered it.â€
