e Intersection is at once heartbreaking, haunting, and uplifting. The people in her elegantly wrought poems are wounded, lost, and some are gone, but Jones deftly makes us feel how they mattered, and still matter, how they were loved, and how the essence they shared shimmers on in the triumphs of those still here. It's remarkable, a deeply moving debut." -Toni Ann Johnson Winner of the 2021 Flannery O'Connor Award for Light Skin Gone to Waste
