Eve Linn's debut collection, Album of Not, examines the female experience through poems that channel women whose lives defied the patriarchy: Frida Kahlo, Sarah Bernhardt and Francesca Woodman. At its heart Album of Not concerns itself with the not - not what never existed but the excision of what existed: Excise the image. / Leave only a perfect silhouette. The speaker is the scribe of battered stars who has to memorize her own son and buys a photo album ...to pretend / I had a past. This remarkable collection confronts the perpetuity of loss through poems that are often surreal and always arresting.
- Cindy Veach, author of Her Kind
