around the biology of periods from
pre-pubescence and monthly cycles, to
perimenopause, hot flashes, and menopause.Told in
cycles, awfully hilarious period pieces
explores menstruation through feminine (but not
always female) archetypal milestones of the
maiden, mother, and crone-and the many
identities we embody in between.In the Spring
sections, the collection focuses on stories of
first periods and youth on the cusp, as well as
the follicular phase between flow and ovulation.
Summer revels in ovulation, fertility (as well
as birth control), and pregnancy. Fall
represents menstruation's luteal phase, when
many experience greater pain and distress, and
finally, Winter takes readers to the very edge
and end, with perimenopause and
menopause.Regardless of gender expression or
experience, period pieces is for everyone
fervently and courageously sharing a human
experience often forced to secrecy and solitude.
