Winner of the 2016 Yale Series of Younger Poets prize A fresh and rebellious poetic
voice, Airea D. Matthews debuts in the acclaimed series that showcases the work of
exciting and innovative young American poets. Matthews's superb collection explores
the topic of want and desire with power, insight, and intense emotion. Her poems cross
historical boundaries and speak emphatically from a racialized America, where the
trajectories of joy and exploitation, striving and thwarting, violence and celebration
are constrained by differentials of privilege and contemporary modes of communication.
In his foreword, series judge Carl Phillips calls this book “rollicking, destabilizing,
at once intellectually sly and piercing and finally poignant.” This is poetry that
breaks new literary ground, inspiring readers to think differently about what poems
can and should do in a new media society where imaginations are laid bare and there
is no thought too provocative to send out into the world
