Night Sky With Exit Wounds
Paperback Edition: 1
In his impressive debut collection, Vuong, a 2014 Ruth Lilly fellow, writes beauty into--and culls from--individual, familial, and historical traumas. Vuong exists as both observer and observed throughout the book as he explores deeply personal themes such as poverty, depression, queer sexuality, domestic abuse, and the various forms of violence inflicted on his family during the Vietnam War. Poems float and strike in equal measure as the poet strives to transform pain into clarity.
