Smith is a visionary polyglot with a fearless voice." - Publishers Weekly, starred review "A collection as dazzling as it is bighearted. is filled with passion and humanity and demonstrates why Smith has been called one of the best poets of their generation." - Shelf Awareness "An electrifying, unabashedly queer ode to friendship and community. Their personal style mixes modern slang with gorgeous imagery, resulting in verse as colorful and fanciful as Pablo Neruda but also savvy, down-to-earth, close to the heart.
