In the era of compulsive touch-ups and digital poses, perhaps it is time to re-read our body in order to rescue it.
The thirty chapters of Sensitive Anatomy form a celebration of the body in its entirety. This is a poetic, political and erotic journey across the very matter that makes us. It is a book that reveals how we see ourselves and how we are made to see. It stands against the culture of Photoshop, against oppressive images, against edits and erasures. In this way, Neuman continues to extend the limits of short-form prose with irony and aplomb. Body as style, style as body.
