Publisher's Synopsis

Author is highly active in the local (MN) and national poetry community and the Max Ritvo Poetry Prize announcement was covered widely by the Minneapolis Star Tribune, the Pioneer Press, and Minn Post, as well as shared widely on social media by advocates Danez Smith, Heid Erdrich, and Roy Guzman

Author is widely published in Literary Hub, the Rumpus, Rain Taxi, McSweeney's, Water~Stone Review, and North Dakota Quarterly

We received a strong judge citation from Henri Cole, who calls the collection "a triumphant, paradoxical, luminous response to a violent time in our history"

Collections focus on the experiences of middle-class Black Americans and the poet's engagement with history, racism, the natural world, marriage, and fatherhood provide opportunities for wide coverage
