The contradictions of diasporic love are embodied within this inquisitive poetry collection: a multiplicity of voices, bodies, houses, and cities intersect and create new histories, in poems that range from dreamlike to experimental, interactive to confessional, The Moon That Turns You Back blurs boundaries and borders between place, time, and poetic form. The everyday tedium of infertility lives alongside geopolitical displacement. The nostalgia for return exists within the larger frame of womanhood. At the heart of this collection lies the single, persistent question: What does it mean to transform into something unrecognizable-and what are the things that can bring us back?
