Time is a Mother by Ocean Vuong
"Vuong's poetry had me aching with grief, but it also somehow comforted me along the way. This collection is simply breathtaking, and Vuong is downright generous for sharing his heartfelt insights, haunting imagery, and intimate account of his mother's passing through words that will stick to your skin. Just a couple of days late for Mothers' Day."
—Emma, Main Library
