These poems grapple with questions of wholeness and annihilation in an Anthropocenic world where the fallout of settler colonialism continues to inflict environmental and cultural devastation. Cody encourages readers to participate in radical acts of refreshing and reimagining the page, poem, collection, and the self, and he invites us to reflect on what lies ahead should our climate continue on its current trajectory toward destruction. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e These poems consider if wholeness, or a journey toward wholeness, can exist in the Anthropocene. And, if wholeness cannot exist in these times, we are invited to look at our lives and the world through and beyond annihilation. \u003cbr\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAnthony Cody\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of \u003ci\u003eBorderland Apocrypha\u003c\/i\u003e, which won the 2018 Omnidawn Open Book Prize, a 2022 Whiting Award, 2021 American Book Award, 2020 Southwest Book Award, 2020\u003ci\u003e Poets \u0026amp; Writers\u003c\/i\u003e debut poet, and was a finalist for the National Book Award, the PEN America \/ Jean Stein Award, and the L.A.
