With a sense of rebellion and the revival of the hollered voice, this is an urgent narrative propelled by the necessity of upheaval, imagining what happens when we break through barriers of systemic violence and communal oppression to reconsider what could be. \u003ci\u003eBoyish\u003c\/i\u003e looks back at the status quo in order to move beyond, into a dream of a nonbinary utopia. A reckoning, this collection brings the reader along for revolution-a deep belief in possibility. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Each page builds tension that then shatters, bringing us into the interior of a story. Brody Parrish Craig invites us to carve out a space and to find ourselves carried over the gravel along the creek. Moving through the subconscious and embodied desire, these poems are rich with formal play, twisting language in dense sonnets. Landscapes of the city's dystopia meet the queer pastoral, where conservation often means knowing what must be burned down.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrody Parrish Craig\u003c\/b\u003e, originally from Louisiana, is a poet and tranarchist who currently lives in the Ozarks.
