Freud explains how what we repress—what we know but don't want to acknowledge—reappears in our actions through repetition. Through slips of the tongue or selective memory, we engage with what our unconscious knows, finding knowledge through unknowing. The psychoanalytic session is centred on bringing forth repressed knowledge through acts of unknowing—speaking without thinking—which brings one closer to recognising an obscured desire.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThe poetry of \u003cem\u003eSweet Repetition\u003c\/em\u003e works in ways akin to the psychoanalytic act. These pulsing poems follow the definitions of the word \u003cem\u003erevolution\u003c\/em\u003e—to revolve, change direction, unroll, unwind, happen again, repeat, orbit around. Images and words reappear in the motion of Cynthia Cruz's poems, inviting us into their revolutionary, political, and cumulative effects.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46871508975852,"sku":"9780226843766","price":51.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/20665943482268.jpg?v=1759882708"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.pro\/collections\/cynthia-cruz.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
