Like the rebel girls in her poem \"The Ghetto of Blasphemy,\" Wise takes aim at the official rhetoric of patriarchy and reveals gender to be a tattered assemblage pieced together from a looted past. Wise charts the self through an inquiry into language, moving from World War II to a future where victim, oppressor, and bystander pose as the same person. Darkly comic, deeply feminist, The Kingdom of the Subjunctive is the last territory, an if-only border zone where doubt and desire are the laws of the land.\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Alice James Books","offers":[{"title":"Kingdom of the Subjunctive | Suzanne Wise | Paperback | 9781882295234 | Used: Very Good | Poetry 1655590","offer_id":50778875691266,"sku":"1655590","price":21.04,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0609\/3327\/5906\/files\/71f2ndJW_JL.jpg?v=1792174889","url":"https:\/\/boswellsbooks.com\/products\/kingdom-of-the-subjunctive","provider":"Boswell's Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
