Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

A powerful debut collection from an award-winning artist, public speaker, and poet.Trillium Book Award for Poetry, FinalistGerald Lampert Memorial Award, ShortlistPat Lowther Memorial Award, ShortlistRaymond Souster Award, LonglistWith propulsive, intimate stylings and an eye toward Black liberations, pop culture, sports, and familial fractures, Wires that Sputter meets the world with the posture of a portraitist and the deftness of a poet-as-acrobat, as seeker. Here in these wondrous poems is an attentiveness toward that which harrows as well as that which heals, toward the power of space-giving and fragmentation. Rupture and recovery, tribute and tribulation, a revivifying musicality, and room to breathe—all dapple these pages, where electricity manifests in every line.
