Does poetry make you yawn thinking of Whitman, Longfellow or e e cummings? 

Well, poetry is sexy again with one of the most graphic and controversial books of the year!

Writer, K–, bursts onto this year’s art scene with one of the most anticipated book releases of our time.

Libidacoria: In a Plain Brown Wrapper chronicles an independent woman’s sexual journey in the modern world.  Far more than a work of eroticism, this book examines an independent woman’s struggle to find love in a world consumed by sex.

Libidacoria chronicles the author’s sexual journey from using men to satisfy her own “beast” to finding that one special man who obsesses her and ultimately opens her up for the possibility of love … again. Her graphic use of language and raw directness are intermingled with a subtle desire for romance and connectivity giving this book a unique insight into the feminine psyche.

         

Reviews:

 

K--'s persona is driven by an insatiable sexual greed.  The pleasure in experiencing this through K--'s poetry is the joy that one experiences wallowing in an orgy of undiluted lust.  Except that there's more than that happening within these pages.  It’s enough to say here that Libidacoria is intelligent poetry about female sexuality and demands an intelligent reader response."

Mr. Ashley Lister, columnist and book reviewer

“In her recent collection of poems, Libidacoria, Kristie LeVangie explores the complex subject of female sexuality, which she depicts as a source of both liberation and subjugation. Presented as an interconnected book-length sequence, the poems in LeVangie’s edgy new work treat the narrator’s relationships and trysts as a process of self-discovery, which often encompasses broader questions about the society she inhabits. Recurrently questioning aspects of both traditional gender roles and contemporary feminism, Libidacoria adeptly negotiates social criticism with stylistic innovation, proving a finely crafted and thought-provoking read.”

At first glance, Kristie LeVangie’s poem collection Libidacoria: In a Plain Brown Wrapper seems to portray a self-satisfied, empowered woman content to successfully live out this attitude. However, through subtle, telling hints, LeVangie reveals her speaker’s growing desire for emotional connection and romantic love. And the author’s ability to subtly illustrate gradual emotional development through metaphorical interactions among various parts of the speaker’s psyche becomes the piece’s greatest strength.”

“This book is an original, revealing a woman who longs for human closeness, choosing the sexual path to her destination.  Strong vernacular and erotic themes make this book a must-have for fans of sex and poetry alike.”

                                            Sam Hasson, L.A. Talk Radio

Libidacoria: In A Plain Brown Wrapper, lends sexual mystery to fantasy. It has the feel of sweet innocent desire that smells like leather. Poetic deviance searching for the picket fence with a chain swing attached to the mind. Not your mother's poetry, and isn't that refreshing.”

B.J. Stahl, fan

“Through her use of direct, brutal language, she elicits emotional reactions from hurt, to anger, to loss, to disgust, exemplifying the independent, strong woman struggling in a world that does not yet respect her independence...the emotional realm comes through in her poetry, through the exquisite, explicit language of lust and carnal craving. 

It would be unjust to categorize this book as purely erotic writings – the depth displayed in the undercurrents of the book show a greater understanding of the male/female roles in society than is usually seen elsewhere.  The conflict between the subjugated woman and the dominant emotions plays out throughout her poetry, portraying this conflict in an unusually expressive way.  K—’s story is one of passion unleashed, a passion that has run through the ages but is rarely accepted in traditional societal norms.”
