The Body as Haunted is the debut poetry collection of Pixie Bruner. Like a cat, she has led many lives. This themed collection centers around the theme of the body and all the ways it is haunted, in good and ill, yet carries on. This is her family ghosts, the dead, her almost death and rebirth from cancer, madness, passion, her fears, her fury, and so much abundant and dangerous love, told without mercy and contains selections covering over 30 years of spoken word pieces and poetry.
