About this book

"Fueled by questions of faith and desire, and steeped in the Southern Gothic, Meg Wade's Slick Like Dark is a haunting examination of the Southern body and one woman's survival in it. These poems burn in their intensity. With a menacing wink they trace a hard line through trauma's wreckage and ask God who is to blame. They take us to the dark corners of honky-tonks and spin us wide around the room. Through the lyric, Wade gives us a voice piercingly honest and desperate for what's real."--Publisher's website.
