After losing one of her closest friends, the poet began swimming laps--part meditation, part therapy, part escapism--immersed in the depths of the public pool. There, she found herself haunted by the strange tension between fitness \/ surrender and memory \/ motion where ghosts of girlhood, catholicism, and addiction rose to the surface. These themes haunt Lockers Are for Bearcats Only - a tender, unguarded exploration of loss, embodiment, and the currents that carry us through life with and without those who shaped us.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eMallory Tater is the author of This Will Be Good: Poems (Book*Hug Press, 2018), The Birth Yard: A Novel (HarperCollins, 2020), and Soft Tissue: A Novel (forthcoming, ECW Press, 2027).
