BodyHome

Description

In her debut essay collection, Chelsey Clammer dives flesh-first into finding her home. But these essays aren't about places, but a state of mind-when you're at home in your body, you're at home in the world. With both lyricism and wit, Clammer uses her body to explore a complicated history of assault, addictions, mental illnesses and sexuality. Ranging from hilarious to chilling, the powerful prose in BodyHome drives our bodies back home.
