Description

Star LaBranche shines an unflinching light on princess culture and childhood romantic expectations in her latest chapbook. Weaving themes of loneliness, confusion, and heartbreak through the narrative, her critical eye falls on everyone, including herself. Fool's Mate is many things, but it's not a happily ever after story.
