This powerful collection looks at longing and grief with sensitivity and care. What does it mean for desire to be born out of loss? How are relationships born?
Each Knuckle with Sugar answers these questions with precise language and intimate details that pull the reader in close. In these poems, the complexity of love is teased out with the gentlest comb, revealing stark truths about connection.
The precision of line breaks and word choice in this collection is stunning. These poems feature nature imagery mixed with incisive details about the body. In these pieces, love is an all encompassing and well-studied geography.
Each Knuckle with Sugar is a quietly devastating but ultimately hopeful look at burgeoning love. Simply put, Sarah Levine has written one of contemporary poetry's strongest collections of poems about the mixture of grieving and loving.
This collection also features a bespoke interview with the writer at then end of the book, delving deeper into the craft, influences, and life behind their work.
