Root Fractures: Poems by Diana Khoi Nguyen

3.0

Thanks to the publisher for a review copy. This came out in January. 

This is a poetry collection that deals with some heavy themes, her parents immigrating, their love back in their home country during the war, her brother’s suicide, and just all the generational trauma encompassed in that. 

I really really loved the unique format the author did with this book, shaping her poetry around pictures of her family. I also loved the repeating thematic writing she had in here.
