Description
Winner of the 2021 Noemi Press Book Award in Poetry. Longlisted for the 2023 PEN America Open Book Award.
GORGONEION explores the us or them mentality that has permeated U.S. culture since the mid 2010's. Whether personal, political or historical, this collection constantly asks the questions "what are we doing?" and "where do we go from here?" Taking on a number of social justice issues, Gorgoneion weaves in wit and humor to add levity to the more somber subject matter throughout the collection. In moments, it reflects a tender interiority and desire to belong while using this sense of alienation to poke holes in the logic of groupthink.
