Transit by Cameron Awkward-Rich

5.0

Another gorgeous offering from this poet. I believe this is his first collection, a chapbook published by Button Poetry. The whole series of poems connects in various ways with the title, Transit. Many poems take place on trains, during transport, and others focus on the liminal quality of memory and identity, particularly through Awkward-Rich’s experience as a trans man. These are poems of navigation, of sorting out—they are always gorgeous and often devastating.
