d-sorientation

A Blessing the Boats Selection with a Foreword by Aracelis Girmay Charleen McClures d-sorientation wanders the landscape of loss with a weathered eye and a clenched fist. Delving deep into personal hauntologies, McClures speakers are dislocatedtheir observations and interrogations are quietly desperate as they navigate history, relationships, and dig for their roots. The lexicon of McClures poetry is one of intimacy and outrage, one that challenges the reader to consider their own belonging. Through bold lyric poems that beat with brutality yet glow with softness, McClures debut collection is a compass, pointing the reader towards reclamation.
