Amanda Chimera by Mary B. Moore explores our hybrid nature as body and something else--mind, soul, spirit--through poems spoken by and about the persona Amanda. Haunted by her vanished twin, Gloria, who died in utero and some of whose DNA she absorbed, Amanda views herself as hybrid and thus as a monster, a carrier of the dead. Grounded in nature's grace and variety, domestic life, and family dynamics, poems on art and myth focus on hybrid creatures, paralleling Amanda and Gloria. The sisters' relationship is as varied as the poems' tones: as Amanda says, she "likes a mixed diction." Sometimes loving or sorrowful, sometimes witty and wry, the work revels in image and word music.
