โœฆ Synopsis


Long-listed for the 2019 National Book Award for Poetry!

In Derricotte's own words:

"How do you gain access to the
power of parts of yourself you
abhor, and make them sing
with beauty, tenderness, and compassion?

This is the record of fifty years
of victories in the reclamation
of a poet's voice."
