POST STROKE is a small hand-designed snippet of ten new poems and more.
About a year ago, Juliet Cook suffered from an unexpected carotid artery dissection, bleeding out by 99%, aneurysms, and a stroke - and this strange sensation inspired the poems within this collection.
Below are a few comments from a couple of the DUSIE poets who have already read POST STROKE:
"I just read your chap, and really love it-- the whole package, I love the design, the colors, the size of the pieces, and then I love that each poem is so intense- you read the first image or phrase and that packs enough wallop, and then two words later it is just as surprising/ arresting, and repeat...
and therefore the whole thing is so intense because each time you ponder a phrase ontop of phrase you are sort of sinking into it...
I love the focused intensity and will read this one multiple times!"

"I got Juliet's chapbook through the door a couple of days ago and some of it blew me away.
I've never had a stroke but I find it intriguing to use her words to imagine the feelings.
'terrible pterodactyl necklace' !! Wow o_O"
