520 "With the emotional undertow of Ocean Vuong and the astute
political observations of Natalie Diaz, a powerful poetry
debut exploring the effects of racism, war and colonialism,
queer love and desire. In their breathtaking
international debut, Aaiún Nin plumbs the depths of the
lived and enduring effects of colonialism in their native
country, Angola. In these pages, Nin untangles
complexities of exile, the reckoning of familial love, but
also reveals the power of queer love and desire through
the body that yearns to love and be loved. Nin shows the
ways in which faith and devotion serve as forms of
oppression and interrogates the nature of home by
reclaiming the persistent echoes of trauma. A captivating
blend of evocative prose and intimate testimony, Nin
speaks to the universal vulnerability of existence." --
