Sinopse
A poetic ethnography that creates and documents the vocabulary of the Southern Black queer experience, chosen as a National Poetry Series winner by Morgan Parker
"Willis’ poetic voice is brimming with personality and curiosity, as musical as it is philosophical, and the space between men is a formidable debut.”—Morgan Parker, author of Magical Negro and There Are More Beautiful Things than Beyoncé
These piercing, surprising poems look to familial history, rituals of faith, and the natural world to explore how the intersecting cultures of Blackness and queerness relate to each other. As the collection evolves, the listener is challenged and empowered to seek expansiveness in spaces that have not previously been excavated, reckon with the complexities of interpersonal relationships, and explore memory as a catalyst for self-determination. Mia S. Willis weaves together intergenerational knowledge and personal discovery—not only to define themselves but to articulate a communal identity that transcends language.
Resumo da Crítica
“In this profound and evocative collection, Mia S. Willis commands each line with a dazzling attention to language—its failures and its gaps, its lyric potential and holy plainspokenness, its politics and cultural specificities—illuminating the spaces between and within all of us. Ranging from imagistic to cerebral, humorous to heartbreaking, these poems trace a journey to self-understanding and self-permission, exploring the inner and outer battles toward building a self—specifically, a Black, queer self—and learning to ‘not be afraid to birth yourself beautiful.’ Willis’ poetic voice is brimming with personality and curiosity, as musical as it is philosophical, and the space between men is a formidable debut.”—Morgan Parker, author of Magical Negro and There Are More Beautiful Things than Beyoncé
