Lions Like Us

By Hollie Hardy

At the heart of Hollie Hardy's Lions Like Us is the question: What would you sacrifice for love? Here are poems of longing and loss that weigh and confront the risk of change. The story starts with a budding passion before the burgeoning pandemic and bears immersive witness to distance, isolation, Black Lives Matter protests, and a new love unfolding and refolding at the center of a city in turmoil. Against a burning backdrop, image-rich and lyrical, full of teeth and hands, doorways and birds, nightscapes of ocean and fire, these poems chart the journey of a phoenix, "a woman turning in / to herself."
