The poems in Immigrant Model explore issues of individual and communal identity in the face of conflict, conflicting truths or histories, and uprootedness. They explore the notion of homeland as it relates to one's roots, adopted space, psychological terrain, gendered body. If the book reads as a collage of voices or shards rather than as a book with an identifiable arc, it's because that's the only way the poet has managed to answer, so far, the question, What is it like to be of this world and this world and this world, while also of the elsewhere skirting these worlds?
