Rebecca Lehmann's <i>The Sweating Sickness</i> contains wide-ranging topics--the suicide of an abusive ex, parenting young children, fairy tales, reproductive rights, domestic violence, ghost stories, ancient myth--all set to the backdrop of the COVID-19 pandemic. Both personal and political, these poems interrogate how we grieve, what it means to be a woman in post-<i>Roe </i>America, and how private and public ghosts can come back to haunt us. Surrealist, maximalist, formal, and with an ear to the underworld, <i>The Sweating Sickness</i> spins the reader into an eco-fabulist wonderland, where anything can happen, and does.
