A powerful and unflinching sort of documentary poetics. This collection bears elegiac witness to the effects of global politics on individual lives. Shane Book's poems carry us to Uganda, Ghana, Mali, Trinidad, and Canada's west coast; from a religious sacrifice in Tarahumara, Mexico, to Book's ailing grandfather's bedside.
