By Aiden Hunt Verified| Philly Poetry Chapbook Review@ As a child, I wasn’t allowed to watch television on days when there was school the next day. The rule for my two older siblings and myself was that we could listen to the radio, do our homework, or read. I can’t speak to my parents’ reasons for this rule, but it went a long way toward teaching me to loving reading and then writing. It’s one of many ways that they helped me get to where I am now.
By Aiden Hunt Verified| Philly Poetry Chapbook Review@ Poet Kate Colby grew up in Massachusetts before earning her Bachelor’s degree from Wesleyan University and a Master’s in Fine Art from the California College of the Arts. Her full-length poetry collection, Fruitlands, was selected by Rosmarie Waldrop for the Norma Farber First Book Award. Beauport, her third full-length, was a finalist for Foreword Reviews’ Poetry Book of the Year Award, and Colby received a creative fellowship from the Woodberry Poetry Room at Harvard, among other honors.
By Aiden Hunt Verified| The Adroit Journal@ “How do you quantify the murmuring grief of the Americas?” asked poet Daniel Borzutzky in his 2021 collection, Written After the Massacre of 2018, and he continues to ruminate on this question. The poems in The Murmuring Grief of the Americas continue to focus on opposition to capitalism, imperialism, and the casual midwestern racism that leads to migrant mistreatment.
