Poetry Chapbook - RAPE by Charlotte Jung

With this short series of visual/found text poems, Charlotte Jung shines a light on the disturbing frequency of rape and the near-banality of its prevalence. RAPE is a feminist script exploring the phenomenon of rape through a clinical engagement with the term itself, evoking the numbness we feel in place of the horror we should feel when confronted with the truth about rape culture. The Blasted Tree has produced a limited edition of 60 copies of RAPE, each bound with red thread into light grey high-cotton covers with the title debossed in. Copies of the chapbook are available now from The Blasted Tree’s store, and the series can be read online following the link below.
