Set during World War I in southwest Virginia, Hiding Ezra is the story of a simple farmer, Ezra Teague, who is forced to choose between fighting for his country and taking care of his family.

What Pecan Light

Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
"With attention to the histories that make and sustain a family-its generations, its roots in certain soils-What Pecan Light exhumes a family's long entwinements in the South and whiteness. Excavating the economic, agricultural, and military roots of the speaker's family tree, the poems of this collection unearth the speaker's complicity in the institutions of whiteness: "I was willing / to love a polluted thing." Against a narrative of innocence, the poems engage the abiding symbol of the Confederate flag, the historical fact of an enslaving, plantation-owner great-grandfather, and the enduring harm of racial violence: 'Bitter collards. Rib bones smoking / against our teeth.'"--
