Anotace knihy

Katerina Canyon's poems offer intimate accounts of home as the locus of danger - and homeland as a state of oppression. They are at once urgent and mysterious, full of ocean depths and surging currents. Far from nostalgia, home inspires in this poet a vigilance, keeping watch on herself and others. Her very language is charged with the alert intelligence that offers a means of survival, and metaphors that transform pain into poetry.

-Devin Johnston, author of Mosses and Lichens

Katerina Canyon's poems dive into history unafraid to explore the complexity of home and family and acknowledge: the sea is filled with bones. This powerful, engaging collection where we see the billowing skirt of sunset asks again and again: How do get past our pasts? Smart, poignant, compassionate, Canyon's poems remind us that strength happens despite one's childhood and one's country; they exclaim, We can choose whether we are stuck / In darkness or in light.

-Kelli Russell Agodon, author of Dialogues with Rising Tides

In lush language and startling images, Katerina Canyon unveils a story in blood and bone of a speaker who survives domestic cycles of addiction and abuse, terrors handed down from the plantation through generations of her kin . . . Like the Phoenix, the speaker dares to draw near destruction to name our violent histories in order to claim a survivor's eternal understanding of how to love, how to mother, and how to teach the world that We cannot be bound. We are free. We are infinite.

-Katy Didden, author of The Glacier's Wake
