Writing Your Name on the Glass

Jim Whiteside

Writing Your Name on the Glass reckons with the duration of memory and the peculiarities of the present, tackling what it means to be both beloved and also subject to love's grasp. Joining the poetics of the queer south, Jim Whiteside furthers the conversation about identity, place, and desire in contemporary queer relationships. These elegant and precise poems document the process of reassembling broken pieces and finding one's voice again.
