ABOUT THIS BOOK
Our Earliest Tattoos destabilizes traditional notions about memory, its permanence and supposed purity, with a simple premise: to remember is to enact violence against the body. Brazen, fragmentary, and intimate, these sonnets depict with astonishing creativity what can come of worshiping the past.
