This generous anthology pairs fifty illuminating poems with poet and podcast host PaÌdraig OÌ Tuama's appealing, unhurried reflections. With keen insight and warm personal anecdotes, OÌ Tuama considers each poem's artistry and explores how its meaning can reach into our own lives. Focusing mainly on poets writing today, OÌ Tuama engages with a diverse array of voices that includes Ada LimoÌn, Ilya Kaminsky, Margaret Atwood, Ocean Vuong, Layli Long Soldier, and Reginald Dwayne Betts. Natasha Trethewey meditates on miscegenation and Mississippi; Raymond Antrobus makes poetry out of the questions shot at him by an immigration officer; MartiÌn Espada mourns his father; Marie Howe remembers and blesses her mother's body; Aimee Nezhukumatathil offers comfort to her child-self. Through these wide-ranging poems, OÌ Tuama guides us on an inspiring journey to reckon with self-acceptance, history, independence, parenthood, identity, joy, and resilience. For anyone who has wanted to try their hand at a conversation with poetry but doesn't know where to start, Poetry Unbound presents a window through which to celebrate the art of being alive"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 $a Poetry 700 1 $a OÌ Tuama, PaÌdraig, $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l TRPE062 $d 20221230010726.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BBA72EBA880F11EDB865071A4AECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
