Reviews

How I Bend Into More is a singular, stunning debut. The brilliance and courage with which Tea Gerbeza remembers, witnesses, experiences, and imagines is matched only by the intensity with which she bends the boundaries of art. Gerbeza expands the possibilities of poetry, renewing the creative potential of everything from punctuation, lines, and images to layout, paper, and the corporeal body itself. Read this book immediately and share in this expansion, this renewal. --Daniel Scott Tysdal, author of The End Is in the Middle: Mad Fold-In Poems How I Bend Into More is a healing line. Tea Gerbeza's sculptural pages crack the brackets of shame and unfurl the self--the vertebral I --until poem and body touch. This is the quilled work of a heart. A bouquet of paper roses unfolding in the hand. --Jennifer Still, author of Legs, Comma, and Girlwood
