With titles like “Shedonism”, “Someone to Eat Chips With”, “It’s Called Maximalism, Babe”, and “Breaking News: Local Woman Gets Out of Bed”, Rush’s debut collection of poetry uses humor to grapple with the female experience―from questioning whether or not to have children, to roasting the patriarchy, to challenging what it means to “age gracefully”―and each piece delivers gut-punching truths alongside gratifying punchlines. Readers walk away from Lyndsay’s work feeling seen, celebrated, and wholly convinced that joy is an urgent, worthwhile pursuit.
