Pine

Poetry. LGBTQIA Studies. Pine maps a secret relationship between two women in the South, where certain kinds of desire–queer desire, in particular–have historically been hidden and feared. Creating new landscapes of identity by reimagining form, modifying villanelles, sonnets, elegies, thank-you notes, and dictionary entries, Pine’s imagistic and metaphorical associations between the body and the natural world form a queer ecology of longing and loss.
