A first collection of poems from the winner of the Cuffer Prize for short fiction

Our Gleaming Bones Unrobed is a haunting debut, a poetry collection thematically focused on discovering the structure (the figurative bones) beneath the appearance (or skin) of a situation.

This poetry is at once memento mori — a reminder and celebration of our mortality and a lyrical exploration of the spirituality of the mundane, the possibility for revelation found in the commonplace.

The universe’s heart is a ruined house.
Written on the door is this:
you cannot do a thing that has not already been done.

– from “On the Occasion of a Book Burning”
