Description
Alicia Mountain's Four in Hand is a collection of four sonnets that explore themes of national identity, intersectionality, and personal experience. Through formal and experimental language, Mountain interrogates the implications of late-stage capitalism, environmental degradation, and social change. The poems range from lyric narratives to blank verses reconfigured from found text, creating a unique blend of sparsity and abundance. They examine the complexities of gay poetic lineage, regionalism, and familial structures, as well as the intersections of politics, culture, and personal identity. Mountain's work offers a nuanced exploration of the human experience, with poems that capture moments of intimacy, heartbreak, travel, eroticism, joy, and everyday life.
