Beschreibung:
Profound, lyric poems interrogate what it means to be fully human as a "queer, black body" in 21st century America.
Rich in religious and artistic imageryTrouble the Water is an intriguing exploration of race, sexuality, and identity, particularly where self-hood is in constant flux. These intimate, sensual poems interweave pop culture and history—moving from the Bible through several artistic eras—to interrogate what it means to be, as Austin says, fully human as a “queer, black body” in 21st century America.
