Subverting celebrated classics of poetry and mythology and
examining horrors from contemporary film and cultural fact,
National Book Award winner Justin Phillip Reed engages darkness as
an aesthetic to conjure the revenant animus that lurks beneath the
exploited civilities of marginalized people. In these poems, Reed
finds agency in the other-than-human identities assigned to those
assaulted by savageries of the state. In doing so, he summons a
retaliatory, counterviolent Black spirit to revolt and to inhabit
the revolting.
