Jackknife: New and Selected PoemsIn Jackknife: New and Selected Poems, Beatty travels the turns and collisions of over twenty years of work. She moves from first person narratives to poems that straddle the page in fragments, to lines that sprawl with long lines of train tracks. Always landing in meaning, we are inside the body not in a confessional voice, not autobiography but arriving through the expanded, exploded image of many stories and genders. The new poems leap imagistically
In Jackknife: New and Selected Poems, Beatty travels the turns and collisions of over twenty years of work. She moves from first-person narratives to poems that straddle the page in fragments, to lines that sprawl with long lines of train tracks. Always landing in meaning, we are inside the body-not in a confessional voice, not autobiography-but arriving through the expanded, exploded image of many stories and genders. The new poems leap imagistically from the known world to the purely imagined, as in the voice in "Abortion with Gun Barrel" "I am the counselor, /there are cracks in the barrel of the gun/there is aiming/shots of sorrow-/ shots of light." Commitment to a rabid feminist voice continues, but arrival has a new ring to it, with beginnings rescripted: "I am a bastard./I walk around in this body of mine." Beatty's fascination with the highway and the breakout West jackknifes at the crossroads of the brutal and the white plains of loss-the body torn down and resurrected in the twenty first century.Binding Type: Paperback

This sunscreen body lotion is quite nice.
Style: Piña Colada
This sunscreen body lotion seems to work well. SPF 30 is the highest I could find with moisturizing capabilities. The smell is a bit overwhelming when you first put it on but it then goes away... so why the added scent. I wish it were SPF 50 and unscented. Otherwise I would have given it 5 stars.

My go to!
Style: Tropical Coconut
I freaking love this sunscreen, not only is the smell divine, but a little goes a long way. It doesn’t leave a greasy feeling or residue.

Great stuff.
Style: Tropical Coconut
No weird smell or greasy residue, feels great on the skin. Tried it while on vacation (friend's lotion), and bought some when I got home. It is my go to now.

Smells and feels good. Love the sunblock!
Size: 6 Fl Oz (Pack of 1)
This is my favorite sunblock ever! The tropical sent smells so good and I use it all year long! It has a nice even spray and it is not too greasy. Does a great job protecting my skin and since it smells so good it actually makes me want to keep putting more sunblock on instead of dreading it. While it is pricey it is worth the money. I use it on my neck, chest and arms, and then use a cheaper spray for the rest of my body. I use the Coola sunblock lotion on my face.
