Gospel of Regicide

 

"In Gospel of Regicide, Eunsong Kim develops a thrilling method for unwriting lyric even as she reimagines it, creating a socially engaged poetry of and for our time. Anticapitalist, feminist and anti-racist yet critical of non-intersectional understandings of identity and selfhood, she is unafraid of drawing the sacred from the pedestrian, and unbeholden to whiteness as foundation. These poems, mutable in form and style, yet cohesive in their vision, suggest a complex and different order allowing us to “complete the story.”  Kim kills the king, and blesses us with a superlative collection as a result."--John Keene
