Powell examines pressing questions of today, from equality and political unrest to the diminishing of democratic ideals, asking if it is even appropriate to write about love in a time seemingly hurtling toward authoritarianism. With honesty and humor, her poems explore fragrance and perfumery as a means of biological and religious seduction. Evoking Whitman's sentiment that we are all made of the same atoms, \u003ci\u003eAtomizer\u003c\/i\u003e looks toward an underestimated sense--scent--as a way to decipher the liminal spaces around us. Molecules of perfume create an invisible reality where narratives can unfold and interact, pathways through which Powell addresses issues of materialism, body image, and the physical and psychological contours of emotional relationships. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eA work of fearless social satire and humorous yet painful truth, \u003ci\u003eAtomizer\u003c\/i\u003e offers a cultural, political, and sociological account of love in the present moment.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eElizabeth A.
