Steely, tender, and sensual, Lisa Baird's When Whales Went Back to the Water creates a reverent container for a broken world. These poems are hymns to living in wonder through loss, joy, motherhood's sleepless nights, domestic violence, and isolation. Offering a courageous account of queer intimate partner violence, including the impacts of femme erasure in queer communities, this book is also grounded in the tastes and textures of a new parent's everyday--keenly interested in our capacities during personal and global catastrophe amidst diaper changes and playground dramas. Haunted by hawks, coyotes, frogs, and forests, the collection also speaks to the power of the beyond-human sphere in the translation and transformation of pain and sorrow. Reaching beyond stories of survivorship to touch on personal and collective pain with tension, nuance, and care, Baird's poems remind us that grief is inextricably intertwined with love and joy.
A powerful debut collection that explores and celebrates the resilience of bodies and sexualities through the sensual and fantastical.
