Most of All the Wanting

By Amanda Merpaw

Book Overview

How do we speak what feels unspeakable?

Exploring the landscape of grief in the wake of divorce, Most of All the Wanting is a treatise on intimacy in the face of change. Throughout, Amanda Merpaw's poems attend to the fluidity of queer desire, documenting the complexities of intimacy, longing, and joy where "there's burning beyond / the cusp of our cups." Set in an environment of political and ecological upheaval, Most of All the Wanting asks what queerness makes possible within the self and the world. An essential debut.
