The Evolution

By Sierra Elise Carter

Cutting across the registers of history, family, bigotry, love, loss, and race, the cycle of poems in The Evolution into 20 seeks to capture the into-the-world essence of youth and feminine consciousness. The work oscillates from such mediations on Etta James to Dionysius, from childhood innocence and holy naivete to the scrutiny of being a Black woman. The exploration into life forges spirit and identity made and remade in joy, suffering, discovery, and peace. The collection is a deeply personal and intimate work, but the very intimacy is all the same a transfigured universal experience sought to be shared with all.
