Together, they take up excess and extinction in speculative lyric. Page is transformed into space for a performative prose in this mythopoesis of blackness and queerness, of return and foray. "The Light Body" surveys the spiritual architecture of the site where longing encounters memory, and grief allows survival, inside and against the reverberations of war. Noah and Micah return to their home in rural Mississippi, where the lovers call upon--SHU--, a manifestation of the owner of roads and doors. The lovers embark on a journey that takes them from home to the woods to the desert to the wilderness. In "The Utterances," The War that Settled Dust reorganized the city. One thousand years later, Theory of Bessie, a cult devoted to recollection--of fragment, of breath, of sound--invite us to consider the besieged body, family, city. Moving beyond apocalypse, Theory of Bessie, invite us to consider collective redress; claiming, that amidst ruin, there is always possibility."-- $c From Amazon 500 $a Parts The Light Body and The Utterances bound back-to-back and upside down. 648 7 $a 2000-2099 $2 fast 650 0 $a Gay men $z Mississippi $v Drama. 650 0 $a African American men $z Mississippi $v Drama. 650 0 $a American drama $y 21st century. 650 0 $a American poetry $y 21st century. 650 7 $a African American men. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00799236 650 7 $a American drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00806998 650 7 $a American poetry. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00807348 650 7 $a Gay men. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00939117 651 7 $a Mississippi. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01207034 655 7 $a Drama. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423879 655 7 $a Poetry. $2 lcgft 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20220317014649.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=06A494C89F4311EBBB7E29A634ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
