![Stringfoot, by Victoria Provost-Print Books-Bottlecap Press](http://bottlecap.press/cdn/shop/files/stringfootfront_{width}x.png?v=1709674432)
Poetry, chapbook, 36 pages, from Bottlecap Features.
Stringfoot is a collection of memories, griefs, and moments written about the before, the while, and the after. The writing is the author’s attempt to untangle harmful memories, like a string from the foot of a pigeon, into benign threads of understanding and rest.
The poems in Stringfoot were written in bookstores, on park benches, on trains and in graveyards. They were written as snow fell, as a virus pervaded the air, in the sleepy space just after a dream. They are New York poems, until they aren’t.
