Description
Michael Chang's debut collection is bold and unapologetic, weaving together scenes, people, places, and metaphor to create a rich tapestry. This vibrant poetry interrogates the confines that govern us, tackling issues of racial and gender equality with unflinching honesty. With an ethos of irreverence and provocation, Chang pushes back against societal norms, queering American poetry in the process. Beneath their comic exteriors, these poems explore a complex American landscape of joy and despair, touching on desire, belonging, sexuality, and race. This collection is both grief-full and flirtatious, an epic exploration that critiques white supremacy and the poetry industry. Chang's writing is both hurtful and heartwarming, lavishing language with fire and tenderness. With a unique voice that refuses to apologize, this debut collection is a necessary contribution to the literary landscape.
