Aprašymas
Winner of The 2024 X. J. Kennedy Poetry Prize, selected by Diane Seuss Fenestration excavates public and private history. The poems here bristle with striking clarity and immediacy, confronting subjects such as the transatlantic slave trade, familial memory, environmental perils, and more. What happened inside those terrifying slave depots like Elmina Castle and Cape Coast Castle in Ghana, where enslaved Africans were caged before facing the horror of the Middle Passage? How does one carry the memory of his dead father? Fenestration, throbbing with an unflinching consciousness that splices history and memory, unfurls with answers.
