The Body's Question
The Body's Question is a passionate collection of poems by past Library of Congress Poet Laureate of the United States, Tracy K. Smith. Confronting loss, historical intersections with race and family, and the threshold between childhood and adulthood, Smith gathers courage and direction from the many disparate selves encountered in these poems, until, as she writes, "I was anyone I wanted to be."
