AUTHOR OF AWARD-WINNING I WAS A BELL
"This stunning book is an elegy for the body before, an ode for the body after."–Carmen Giménez, author of Be Recorder
In this inventive collection, cancer transforms the body, art ignites healing, and faith is a restless vexation.
Flight Plan charts the trajectories of bodies and birds, navigating the dynamic interplay of past, present, and what happens in the in-between. These lyrical poems map the aftermaths of cancer, the varied routes of migration, and the geographies of memory. They document stories of love and its legacies, personal, familial, and national. They reject reductive diagnoses and soar and hunt with birds of prey. In this inventive collection, cancer transforms the body, art ignites healing, and faith is a restless vexation. M. Soledad Caballero urges us to remember that women's aging bodies are evocative, that disease is a hungry creature, and that the interstices of blood and flesh are universes teeming with possibility.
