Sinopsis

Lo maps the deprivation and richness of a rural girlhood and offers an intimate portrait of the woman―tender, hungry, hopeful―who manages to emerge. In a series of lyric odes and elegies, Lo explores the notion that we can be partially constituted by lack―poverty, neglect, isolation. The child in the book’s early sections is beloved and lonely, cherished and abused, lucky and imperiled, and by leaning into this complexity the poems render a tentative and shimmering space sometimes occluded, the space occupied by a girl coming to find herself and the world beautiful, even as that world harms her.

From “General Absolution”
Will you know what I mean if I say
we should have designated all the water
holy? I’m trying to forgive you. And if you’re
wondering who you are, you’re everyone.
