Catalogue, essay, lament, YEAR OF THE MURDER HORNET, Tina Cane's new poetry collection, is a work born of tension. Juxtaposing the personal and the political, these poems navigate the uneasy terrain of the self amid an increasingly tumultuous and fragmented world. Taking up the poet's mantle as seeker, Cane interrogates and wrestles with notions of personal narrative, theory, and truth, as well as our collective cultural realities. YEAR OF THE MURDER HORNET is a book of this moment meant for all moments.
