Pulling at the Curtain investigates the intersection of feminism, reproduction, and expectation. Mary Jane Philpy-Dollins takes an honest look at intimacies of female embodiment, examining the complexities of reproductive decision-making and exploring how to thoughtfully provide healthcare for women within a challenged system. These poems grapple with what it means to be a woman serving women as the speaker faces her own truth about fertility, family, and marriage. Pulling at the Curtain weaves together the professional and personal life of a richly complex woman whose direct voice becomes a source of power.
