Simmering with mirthy sexuality and posing undeniable questions, “Rather Her Clean” is driven by an unabashed, unsparing voice. Cicely Grace deftly paints a timeless portrait of a woman and a worker in the city. With a flair for evoking the body’s un/cleanliness, this collection reads like a vicious vow — an ode to the ‘senseless and saturated agonies’ of the present.
