Tender Buttons

“A virgin a whole virgin is judged made and so between curves and outlines and real seasons and more out glasses and a perfectly unprecedented arrangement between old ladies and mild colds there is no satin wood shining.” - Gertrude Stein, Tender Buttons

DISCLOSURE: This is not your everyday poem book. It’s unconventional and many would say even confusing gibberish. In Tender Buttons, Gertrude Stein played by her own rules: she dismissed the basic rules of the English language, dismantle the sentence and rearranged it as she pleased. The result? Free your mind and read!
