Say It Hurts by Lisa Summe
Say It Hurts grapples with queerness, love, grief, masculinity, coming of age, and coming out in the context of cultural violence rooted in misogyny and familial violence rooted in catholicism. In these poems joy and loss hold hands-at sleepovers and haircuts, at symphonies and haunted mazes, among fathers, on dating apps, during car sex, in matching tattoos, on Pinterest boards, at funerals. Lisa Summe's stunning debut collection queers the love poem by demanding that the whole story be told-what it means to love, to grieve, and to heal by saying it out loud.
