CANDACE WILLIAMS | POET
""I must suppress / the savage custom / of eloquence," Williams writes in this genre-bending and thoroughly beautiful collection, taking the reader with them on a journey through racism, misogyny, homophobia and all the other societal scourges over which truth can still occasionally prosper."
