Red Juice: Poems 1998-2008 by Hoa Nguyen

5.0

I think I could be stranded somewhere with only this book and be sustained for a very long time. I'm in love with the way Hoa Nguyen uses words. Her poems have electricity, and this book is a god damn living creature-beast that's knocked me over (in a good way, not a predatory "I'm going to eat you" way). Get this, read it, co-habitate with it, and watch her read from the book here:
