Home Studies

by Julie Gard

Poetry. LGBT Studies. In HOME STUDIES, Julie Gard presents queer midwestern family life from a fresh and engaging perspective. Her prose poetry illuminates the struggles and celebrations of adoptive parenting, love over time, and finding one's place in a community. "From beginning to end, Gard's new collection trades in empathy... a series of fifty-nine linked prose poems, or snapshots, that delineate the every- day... We might go so far as to call this a post-Adrienne Rich collection, less a call to arms than an invitation to climb into the quotidian trenches and live for a while." Lance Larsen, author of Genius Loci"
