Time Is a Mother

In this deeply intimate poetry collection, Ocean Vuong searches for life among the aftershocks of his mother's death. Shifting through memory, and in concert with the themes of his novel On Earth We're Briefly Gorgeous, Vuong contends with personal loss, the meaning of family, and the cost of being the product of an American war in America. The highly anticipated new collection of poems from the award-winning writer Ocean Vuong.
