About this book

Winner of the 2011 Cave Canem Poetry Prize

"Nicole Terez Dutton's fierce and formidable debut throbs with restless beauty and a lyrical undercurrent that is both empowered and unpredictable. Every poem is unsettling in that delicious way that changes and challenges the reader. There is nothing here that does not hurtle forward."
—Patricia Smith

Chosen by the Black Caucus of the American Library Association as a 2013 Honor Book Winner for poetry.
