About Unmonstrous
John Allen Taylor’s debut chapbook Unmonstrous chronicles a path through and beyond trauma, through pain and after pain. This is a book that embraces the journey toward building and trusting relationships after sexual abuse and sings a song of survival. The intimate speaker of these lyrically muscular and technically masterful poems fights to reconcile issues of identity, faith, childhood, and loss.
