This Strange Garment, by Nicole Callihan

Congratulations to Nicole whose poem "Being that it is late" was featured on Verse Daily on September 9, 2023.

Congratulations to Nicole who has received a 2023 Sustainable Arts Foundation Award. The author of This Strange Garment. She is one of only 4 poets to receive this award this year.
​
Congratulations to Nicole for receiving a review of This Strange Garment at Publishers Weekly.

Congratulations to Nicole whose poem "The Extravagant Stars" was read by Ada Limon on The Slowdown on February 4, 2022.
Praise for This Strange Garment
Nicole Callihan’s semantic debates and whimsical linguistics in This Strange Garment open the reader to more than the pain, treatment, and aftermath of breast cancer. We also get the “god in the scars.” Hers is a mind of lyrical curiosity, turning life around and finding prisms. Let her show you how to “place lady slipper orchids where your flesh used to be.” Let these poems pull you into a life “severed but raptured.”   
   —Lauren Camp, 2022-2025 New Mexico Poet Laureate
