Book Synopsis How to Undress a Cop by : Sarah Cortez

Download or read book How to Undress a Cop written by Sarah Cortez and published by Arte Publico Press. This book was released on 2000-09-30 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: ItÍs not every book of poetry that includes an ñOde to Body Armor.î But then, itÍs not every poet whose experience in academia includes a stint at the police academy. The poems of Sarah Cortez are tough-minded, verbally supple, and often deeply (even explicitly) erotic: You want me to come/ to you each night, drop my gun belt,/ lie along your muscled length . . . And each of these fifty lyric poems (with titles such as ñRosie Working Plain Clothes,î ñLas TÕas,î and ñAttempt to Locateî) displays CortezÍs many facets: the street smarts of a law-enforcement officer (deputy constable in HoustonÍs Harris County); the bilingual vocabulary of a proud Mexican American; the coolly analytic eye of a corporate accountant (as she once was); the linguistic dexterity of a Latin teacher (another former occupation); and the frank sensuality of a strong and spirited woman. Surveying fellow officers, friends, criminals, lovers, strangers, and family members, Sarah Cortez has learned that a bullet-proof vest may, with luck, protect the body, but keeping the heart from harm is a chancier and more mysterious affair. Long after the pages of How to Undress a Cop have been turned, her unique and distinctive voice will stir the blood and haunt the memory.
