Description
Phillip B. Williams' latest collection, Mutiny, is a powerful exploration of revolt and renewal.
In poems that challenge classical mythos and western canonical figures, Williams conjures the hell of being erased, exploited, and ill-imagined, before propelling himself into life, selfhood, and a path forward.
With a ferocity that belies the tenderness and vulnerability at its heart, Mutiny addresses loneliness, desire, doubt, memory, and the borderline between beauty and tragedy, honoring the transformative power of anger and the clarity that comes from allowing it to burn clean.
