The Lyme Letters: Poems

Walt McDonald First-Book Series in Poetry, Book 1

De: C. R. Grimmer

Narrado por: C. R. Grimmer

The Lyme Letters is epistolary verse that spells out a memoir. R, a nonbinary femme character, narrates their experience of disease and recovery through recurrent letters to doctors, pets, family members, lovers, and a “Master”.

R, in letter form and repurposed religious texts, also explores the paradoxical experiences of queer non-reproductivity, chronic illness and disability, and the healing that can be found in the liminal spaces between.
