“Book Descriptions: Dear Memphis is a collection of poems addressed to Memphis, Tennessee, the city where the poet grew up, and explore essential questions of belonging, identity, and generational legacies for a Jewish family living in the American South. “What do I know about exile?” one poem’s speaker asks, and by the end of this book the reader will know plenty. These poems sing with their attention to the particular body and what it cannot carry, what it cannot put down. Through letters, city documents, visual art, and dialogue, Dear Memphis excavates ancestry, inheritance, and the ecological possibility of imagining a future.” DRIVE
