Publisher Synopsis
"Petrosino's second book after her well-received debut, Fort Red Border, begins with a lyrical rush. . . . Petrosino is a rising young poet whose work libraries will want to own for readers looking for fresh talent."--Library Journal"Kiki Petrosino's new collection, Hymn For the Black Terrific, is the kind of book that makes readers of poetry ignite with joy and those who do not read poetry suddenly find themselves in love with verse. Petrosino's hymn is a song for the human, for the animal we are and for the starlight we are. Cold, self-conscious, ironic poetry is out. Petrosino's warm, intelligent, wild, blood and bone, poetry is in. Thank god for that."--Matthew Dickman, Portland Oregon "Petrosino's second book after her well-received debut, Fort Red Border, begins with a lyrical rush. . . .
