About This Book

Bird Eating Bird is a new collection of poems from Kristin Naca, winner of the 2008 National Poetry Series mtvU prize as chosen by Pulitzer Prize winner Yusef Komunyakaa. Playful and serious all at once, Kristin's work explores the richness of her cultural and linguistic heritage and perpetuates NPS's tradition of promoting exceptional poetry from lesser-known poets.
