About this book

Poems of formal grace and searching intelligence that crack "the man-code" and emerge in sympathy on the other side. The author notes, *I grew up in a family with only brothers on a street with only boys. Up until recently, I only had sons. My life has been defined by men. The poet, Ross Gay, and I were discussing this one day, and he suggested I am a male-identified woman. I thought that was very interesting. I learned rules of boy culture before I learned the code of girlhood.*
