Description
Little Hill is a collection of seven long poems that explore the present political moment. Bay Area poet Alli Warren examines capitalism, gender, love, inequality, and resistance in this third full-length collection. These poems are at once energetic and contemplative, intimate and direct, as Warren focuses her attention on the complexities of our time. Despite the dystopian now, Warren finds promise in the smallest human instances of tenderness, ecological connection, and political solidarity. The language is precise, lush, unexpected, and often thrilling, with a focus on articulation that maintains separation while allowing for connection. This book is a powerful exploration of living and loving in the 21st century, and its unsparing yet hopeful tone makes it a compelling read.
