Threat come close

Edición de la obra Threat come close

In his debut collection, Aaron Coleman writes an American anthem for the 21st century, a full-throated lyric composed of pain, faith, lust and vulnerability. Coleman's poems comment on and interrogate the meaning of home and identity for a black man in America, past and present. Guided by a belief system comprising an eclectic array of invented saints--Trigger, Seducation, Doubt and Who--Coleman's quest locates new ways of being in the natural world where "[t]he trees teach me how to break and keep on living."
