Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Exploring the theme of homelessness, Claire Millikin's poetry delves into a deep yearning for the safety and comfort of houses. The collection traverses an American landscape, juxtaposing experiences from childhood to adulthood, while reflecting on personal and familial histories. Drawing on classical mythology and architectural theory, Millikin creates empathetic verses that confront the struggles of those lost in America. The voices of resilient girls resonate throughout, embodying a persistence that aligns with Rimbaud's notion of remaining intact. An introduction by Tara Betts enhances the work's depth.
