Danez Smith’s award-winning collection explores the intersection of black identity, mortality, and the American experience. Through a series of powerful verses, the poet imagines an afterlife for victims of police violence while navigating the complexities of living with an HIV diagnosis. This work serves as an urgent, lyrical confrontation with systemic injustice, balancing profound grief with a defiant celebration of survival and human connection.
