SUMMARY:Poet Joan Kwon Glass reading from her new collection of poetry\, Daughter of Three Gone Kingdoms (Perugia Press\, 2024)
DESCRIPTION:Doors open at 4:00\nTea/reading concludes by 6:00\n \n\n\nWinner of the 2024 Perugia Press Poetry Prize\, Daughter of Three Gone Kingdoms explores themes familiar to those who know Kwon’s work: it’s described as part lamentation and part hymn—an illumination of diasporic hungers\, hauntings\, absence\, and resilience. This collection “explores colonialism and “postcolonialism” through disordered eating\, suicide loss\, religious damage\, familial estrangement\, addiction\, motherhood\, and recovery. These poems ask urgent questions: What does it mean to be a mixed-race survivor of generational traumas in a world that often insists on binaries and singular narratives? What role does “hunger” play in navigating life in the diaspora? And\, ultimately\, what is required to raise an American daughter while forging a path forward?” Joan Kwon Glass\, Milford Poet Laureate\, is known for her searching\, thoughtful earlier works\, Night Swim (2023)\, Pancakes for a Dead Boy (2022)\, and If Rust Can Grow on the Moon (2022). She is the editor of Harbor Review\, and the winner of numerous awards and prizes for her work. This event is free and open to the public. \nView event on Facebook.
