Summary

"Youth and frailty, ambition and anxiety. the limitations of the body and the challenges of personal transformation; these are the undercurrents that animate acclaimed poet Ashleigh Young's first collection of essays. In Can You Tolerate This?, Young offers a mosaic self-portrait of one young woman grappling with two forces: the external yearning of social isolation--a universal pang, sharpened here by the New Zealand landscape--and our internal relationship with our physical selves."--Dust jacket
