Overview

Part wunderkammer, part grimoire, Maggie Queeney’s In Kind is focused on survival. A chorus of personae, speaking into and through a variety of poetic forms, guide the reader through the aftermath of generations of domestic, gendered, and sexual violence, before designing a transformation and rebirth. These are poems of witness, self-creation, and reclamation.

Read an Excerpt

From “Cry Wolf”
Remember most do not know the name
of what they want, even as they are wanting—
the body incandesces, numb and ecstatic,
as it is destroyed.
Remember the wolf, drawn only
by gut and jaws, insistent as divining rods—
heart rearing at her name called,
finally, between the trees.
