Michael Chang’s debut collection is bold, unapologetic, and vibrantly defiant. An interrogation into the confines that govern us on our nation’s journey to racial and gender equality. —RICHARD BLANCO

This book attempts to have more fun and fuck more shit up than any debut collection I’ve ever read. Michael Chang’s irreverence is an ethos, their way of pushing back against a culture that finds them “disposable … not colored/White enough … not the arbiter of anything ...” Against that tide, Chang stands the fuck up and says things most poets wouldn’t dream of saying, in the process queering American poetry in a bracingly necessary way. —JASON KOO

Michael Chang hits hard and refuses to apologize. Unabashedly crass, brash, provocative and funny, these poems, beneath their comic exteriors, explore an American landscape full of joy and despair—never flinching from the big subjects of desire, belonging, sexuality and race. Chang takes everything in, somehow managing to console even as they trouble us. Once you start reading, it’s hard to look away. As they write: “I will dominate you. I will come back.” —BRUCE SNIDER
