Description
Beast at Every Threshold by Natalie Wee is a powerful and unflinching exploration of queerness, diaspora, and loss. Through her poems, Wee unravels constructs of "otherness" with unapologetic precision, illuminating the intersections of identity, culture, and violence. Wee's work dances between intimate hungers and broader griefs, weaving together memories, pop culture, and folklore to create a rich tapestry of experience. Her poems are beguiling and deeply imagined, offering a nuanced exploration of the self and its many transformations. With obsessive ferocity, Wee resurrects the self as a site of violence, making visible the "Beast at Every Threshold" that lies within us all. This is a book that will resonate with readers seeking to understand the complexities of identity, culture, and belonging.
