Through dark and light, Danez Smith's language is cutting, bright, and bountiful. I was supremely touched by the entire collection. I love imagining the friends of Smith reading these poems because they are so intrinsically inside of them. There are some poems in here I will be returning to again and again.prose_reveries's review
