Inhaltsangabe

Meghann Plunkett’s debut chapbook, What We Did To Her Made The Water Rise, explores the cross section between shoreline and the female form. This collection is set in the decay of the New England gothic aesthetic where the slow disintegration of an ocean-side community illuminates the ways women are worn down under traditional gender roles. A journey of intergenerational hardship is echoed throughout the stark oceanic imagery and a fraught mother and daughter dynamic. Plunkett’s broken structure and sound blurs the line between body and land, highlighting the similarities between earth erosion and the erosion of the female experience.
