Description

Nikky Finney's third volume of poetry, The World Is Round, is a poignant collection that weaves together memories from everyday life into nuanced and thought-provoking poems. By exploring the complexities of human experience, Finney invites readers to see the world with clarity, fearlessness, and love. Through her work, Finney illuminates the cruelties of a sometimes narrow-minded world and makes a plea for compassion inspired by our shared humanity. Her poetry ranges from the sweetness of family life to the ebullience of warm air, offering a kaleidoscope of human experience that is both deeply personal and universally relatable. With The World Is Round, Finney challenges readers to approach their own lives with understanding, tolerance, and love, resulting in poems that are both deeply human and profoundly moving.
