A review by whosjessanyway
Night Sky with Exit Wounds by Ocean Vuong

emotional fast-paced

4.0

Even if this wasn't my favourite work by Vuong, I still devoured this collection. His words pack a punch like no other's. Emotional, raw and human.

& so what - if my feathers
are burning. I
never asked for flight.
Only to feel
this fully, this
entire, the way snow
touches bare skin - & is,
suddenly, snow
no longer.
