Ginger Murchison's debut poetry collection, a scrap of linen, a bone, is a must-read. As Tomas Lux says in his introduction: These are made poems. These are earned poems. These are poems of a full-fledged grownup who understands and celebrates the "slow hungers" that "breathe / beneath leveled dreams, / the South's muscular sky / painted over now, paler blue." This book will offer you welcome and pleasure.
