"Verse and visuals meet, with spectacular results." -- FOREWORD (Starred Review)

"A thoughtful and vibrant dive into the art of cis female, trans, and nonbinary poets." - BOOKLIST

"This ambitious anthology of feminist comics poetry aims high, and soars." -- PUBLISHERS WEEKLY

"Pairing poetry with art highlights the imagery in a fuller way, which is where . . . Embodied finds its greatest success." -- COMICS BEAT

"There's nothing quite like Embodied in the comics world." -- WOMEN WRITE ABOUT COMICS

Poetry and comics collide in this intersectional feminist anthology featuring twenty-one stories that explore the relationship between gender, identity and the body. A diverse array of award-winning contemporary poets and comic book artists who identify as cis women, trans, and non-binary, work together to create sequential art poems showcasing the relevance, urgency, and power of both genres.

Beautifully illustrated and bracingly written, EMBODIED is a memorable collaboration between cis female, trans, and non-binary poets and comics artists showcasing the power of both forms in a stunningly unique keepsake volume that will be treasured for ages.

Mystical, rooted, painful, joyous, and ecstatic; visions of the body, our genders, and our very identities from across the spectrum of contemporary poetry come together in this monumental intersectional feminist anthology where verse and comics unite in spectacular new ways.

Featuring poetry by national bestseller Maggie Smith, Pulitzer Prize finalist Diane Seuss, and National Endowment of the Arts fellowship recipients Kendra DeColo, Jennifer Givhan, Vanessa Angelica Villarreal, Kayleb Rae Candrilli, Ruth Awad, and Paul Tran.

This edition includes a study guide and a process art section.

A percentage of the proceeds will benefit International Women's Health Coalition.




Industry Reviews
"There were some entries that I didn't feel a connection to. Maybe it was the approach or maybe the topic is something I can't relate to due to my own experience and background, but that may be the best thing about this anthology. That's what makes it inclusive and necessary. There is a story in there for everyone and an art style to suit different tastes, moods, and aesthetics. If you are looking for representation, it is in here. We are currently in a period of history where so much is changing but resistance against acceptance is still present. Works such as this, however, are a step in the right direction." - THE BEAT
