  "Into the rhubarb: headed off the road; to get into trouble; a brawl, argument, or squabble."In her fifth volume of poetry, Carla Coles once again brings us into her inimitable inner world. This time, along with her odes to the pleasures of coffee and cake and writing, she delves into the darker emotions of betrayal, endings, and coming through the fire with her sense of humour intact and her gift with words honed to a new level of insight."Whether the subject matter is painful, wonderful, chaotically confusing, or simply the inappropriating of her own kaleidoscopic inner culture, Carla's perfectly parsed insights are never anything less than a delight. And sometimes there's a sly lesson about how to be human in an inhuman world." ~ Bruce Barber,author of Jetsam: New and Collected Fictions******Carla dwells in the magical realm of Stratford, Ontario. She admits to being a little in love with her community. She is an award-winningmultidisciplinary artist, author, and entrepreneur.

Carla likes to think she is hilarious … Carla's friends have said they think it's endearing that she finds herselfhilarious.

  A memoir made of poetry, Dress Rehearsals documents a decade of performing womanhood in a non-binary body. 
  Dress Rehearsals is a raw and beautiful exploration of what it means to be feminine. Beginning with teenage yearning, these poems both celebrate and grieve Madison's sexual awakening as they transition into the glittering femme fatale. 
  Navigating first love, menstruation, chronic illness, sex and patriarchal power dynamics, Dress Rehearsals is a coming-of-age story that has never been told - a decade of performing womanhood in an elaborate and shifting costume.  
  This collection is a unique and transformative experience and, with its careful balance of dark humour and warmth, a queer celebration of gender.
