Description
A powerful debut collection from an award-winning artist, public speaker, and poet.
Gerald Lampert Memorial Award, Shortlist Pat Lowther Memorial Award, Shortlist Raymond Souster Award, Longlist
With propulsive, intimate stylings and an eye toward Black liberations, pop culture, sports, and familial fractures, Wires that Sputter meets the world with the posture of a portraitist and the deftness of a poet-as-acrobat, as seeker. Here in these wondrous poems is an attentiveness toward that which harrows as well as that which heals, toward the power of space-giving and fragmentation. Rupture and recovery, tribute and tribulation, a revivifying musicality, and room to breathe—all dapple these pages, where electricity manifests in every line.
