Description
Written during a time of turmoil and heavy-heartedness, EARTH HAGIOGRAPHY collates prose poetry in a poignant, frank discourse of grief, police state upbringing, loss of heritage to colonialism, political ideology, earth veneration, queerness, and psychological wounds, seeking to weave and unfold the bloodied yarn of remembrance and histories forgotten or unknown.

I got this as an arc on Netgalley and it will come out in November. This was a hauntingly beautiful poetry book that managed to weave a lot of themes together. Some of the most captivating poems read almost like a rant, a plea, an essay and as a simple but unequivocal truth. Colonialism, imperialism and genocide aren't the past.
