I Saw the Devil with His Needlework
By Bianca Stone
Hand-sewn Chapbook / Sold-out
The air was like a bullet made out of silk… so begins Bianca Stone’s I Saw the Devil with His Needlework. In the three long poems that make up this chapbook, Stone explores the double nature of love in ways that seem simultaneously timeless and new.
