Beautiful: Collected Poems [Paperback]

Michelle Tea ran away to San Francisco in the early 90s. There she found a home in open mic venues, and self-published a steady stream of very limited edition photocopied poetry chapbooks, which are available in a single volume for the first time in The Beautiful. Reflective themes of unrequited love and languor, hopes and heartbreak, prostitution and destitution fill every page with immediately accessible narrative lines.
