The Moon That Turns You Back: Poems by Hala Alyan

4.0

a raw, experimental, stunning collection. i may also be checking out the audiobook to hear the poet narrate them herself, though a few of them i would definitely recommend reading yourself because i doubt their format translates well to audio.

a few of the poems hit incredibly hard, and the rest were very solid. i especially liked the "interactive fiction" series.
