Angora Panties: The Afterthoughts of Loss - Paperback

by Tracy Robert (Author)

As a three-year-old child, Tracy Robert was free to wear her angora panties and nothing else, free to walk her neighborhood dressed this way during the hot days of summer. That changed after a construction worker exposed himself to her and asked her to pull down her panties. Thus began a life of limitations, losses, and survival that inform the memoir, Angora Panties: The Afterthoughts of Loss.

Carefully crafted through reflective essays and prose poetry, Robert's book examines many such moments in her life when being female restricted her freedoms, when trying to live up to exacting standards meant severing ties, and, ultimately, losing her sister.

Some losses haunt us forever. Others we learn to mitigate.

Tracy Robert shows us how.
