Description
In these luminous poems, Mai Der Vang traces the aftershocks of war and displacement through the intimate lens of family, memory, and survival. With vivid imagery and lyrical precision, the collection moves between personal history and larger histories of migration, asking what it means to carry loss forward—and what it takes to make a life from what remains. Themes of resilience, intergenerational inheritance, and the search for belonging pulse beneath each poem, creating a powerful sense of emotional continuity. Vang’s distinctive voice blends tenderness with urgency, offering both witness and refuge in language that feels at once grounded and expansive.
