Joan Kwon Glass's most recent collection, Daughter of Three Kingdoms, is the winner 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.
