A poetic exposé of girlhood, obsession, and the CSI industry. From Snow White to the Yde Girl and Helen of Troy to JonBenét, this lurid and lyrical debut explores the transition from girlhood to womanhood and America's almost pornographic fascination with missing and exploited children. Topical and timely, Darst's poems draw from both the oldest tales and the current vein of child / young woman endangerment horror--recalling and responding to true crime exposés, pulp detective fiction, classic fables, modern novels like The Lovely Bones, and TV shows like Law & Order.
