Steeped in the myths we spin about self, family, and nation, the poems of All the Possible Bodies attend to the complexities of violence in America, racial justice, and the intersection of personal and national identity.
Pollock’s third collection is an emotionally candid and intimate portrait of our varied identities as Americans: the ways we treat one another, the value we assign to each others’ lives, and the persistent internal conflict that tugs between our desires and greater duty.
With clarity of storytelling, musicality of lyric, and crispness of language and image, All the Possible Bodies asks: How do we make peace with our hypocrisy and complicity in a social order that harms us all? Can and should we? Singular in its telling and universal in feeling, All the Possible Bodies seeks to answer these questions through its examination of the complicated emotional and spiritual states characteristic of contemporary American life.
