With fine detail and observation, these poems work in some way like poetic weirs: readers of Kane's work will see the artic and subarctic, but also, more broadly, America, and the exigencies of motherhood, indigenous experience, feminism, and climate crises alongside the near-necropastoral of misogyny, violence, and systemic failures. These contexts catch the voice of the poems' speakers, and we perceive the currents they create.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eJoan Naviyuk Kane \u003c\/b\u003eis Inupiaq, with family from King Island (Ugiuvak) and Mary's Igloo, Alaska.
