Using the language that connects these two states of being, \u003ci\u003eTHOU\u003c\/i\u003e investigates the idea of \"you\" -- what it is and what it means to say \"you,\" the stories we make of our own multiple \"yous,\" and by extension, the \"you\" an author can make of her own book. Building on the emotionally charged language of John's previous work, \u003ci\u003eTHOU\u003c\/i\u003e will tantalize readers' senses, and will provoke comparisons to such acclaimed poets as Anne Carson (especially \u003ci\u003eGlass, Irony and God\u003c\/i\u003e) and Alice Notley.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAISHA SASHA JOHN\u003c\/b\u003e is a dance improviser and poet.
