Kissing the Wound

Más información sobre el libro

In J.D. Isip's second full-length poetry collection, Kissing the Wound, readers are asked to look at "this long life" through a multiversal lens, to consider how our lives and our loves, our traumas and our triumphs, fold in on one another, how we are all connected to and reflected by one another. Isip crosses genres and poetic styles, nods to X-Men and Star Wars as well as Shakespeare, Tolstoy, and the Bible; he shows readers what wonders we miss between breaths and days. "When you pay attention," Isip seems to tell us, "You just might find the healing you were looking for."
