In Writing the Self-Elegy, poet Kara Dorris introduces us to the prismatic poetic tradition of self-elegy and its potential to forge new worlds. The twenty-eight poets featured in this anthology mix autobiography and poetics, blending craft with race, gender, sexuality, ability and disability, and place--all of the private and public elements that build individual and social identity.
