A Bestiary by Lily Hoang

5.0

Lily Hoang's A Bestiary is a masterful blend of essay, fragment, and poem, concerning addiction- to both substances and to love/relationships, and how both can be utterly destructive. Crossed through this are Hoang's considerations of her Vietnamese-American identity. There are some moments in A Bestiary that are among the most brutally honest I've ever read.
