Discussions of various creatures in the natural world serve as portals to the painful realities Kirsten Reneau confronts in the process of breaking-and remaking-a home. Honest in their descriptions of sexual assault and its traumatic effects, these essays are at once clinical and lyrical reflections on the ways that desire can permeate our lives for better or worse, as well as how it can be channeled into a lifegiving force for women in a world often hostile to their basic needs. \u003cem\u003eSensitive Creatures\u003c\/em\u003e ultimately is a story of darkness, resilience, and the light that still manages to crack through.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eKirsten Reneau\u003c\/b\u003e is a writer living in the South.
