HYSTERIA is an anthology of writing from female and nonbinary persons writing about their biology and anatomy and experiences with the body. No ovary will be left unturned. This book approaches everything from tampons to hysterectomies, eating disorders to gender identity, old traditions, rude awakenings, and moments of sheer pleasure. In these pages, you'll find stories of faith, race, pride and shame. Stories of the doctor's office and the dance floor, the bedroom, the bathroom, the stage and the study. Gathered in this volume is writing from an array of authors as diverse and varied as the human-bodied experience. These works address bodies from every ethnic background possible. Queer bodies and straight bodies. Cis bodies and trans bodies. Bodies of different classes and countries. Old bodies and new bodies, sick bodies and healthy bodies. Bodies that made babies and bodies that hadn't/wouldn't/couldn't. In HYSTERIA you'll find slam poetry, prose poetry, lyric essays, formal verse, free verse, microficion, fantasy, myth, legend and your back yard.
