About Books:

Title: How God Ends Us
Author: DeLana R.A. Dameron

Description: “What a refreshing range of vision DéLana Dameron shows in the splendid poems of How God Ends Us. Ever rich with the arresting image, ever graceful and yet refusing to look away from a suffering that calls grace into question—from the ‘assemblies of the shattered / in Harlem’ to the steady inevitability of how the flesh must fail us—these poems argue for witness as the only way of knowing—of being somehow grateful for—a world that is always leaving us, even as we ourselves must leave it. ‘Whose ghosts are haunting us?’ Maybe it’s history itself, these poems suggest—a history of, variously, suffering and of a sustaining, defiant belief in joy.” - Carl Phillips
