Excerpts from Plan B Audio, Jane Joritz-Nakagawa’s new book-length poem, were published in Poems: New & Selected (Isobar Press, 2018); here is the complete work. The book was written during, and in response to, a life-threatening encounter with illness, and in the aftermath of the radical surgery that saved the author’s life.
