A profound meditation on physical, emotional, and psychological transformation in the aftermath of imperial violence and interpersonal abuseVisceral and astonishing, Paul Tran' s debut poetry collection All the Flowers Kneeling investigates intergenerational trauma, sexual violence, and U. S. imperialism in order to radically alter our understanding of freedom, power, and control. In poems of desire, gender, bodies, legacies, and imagined futures, Tran' s poems elucidate the complex and harrowing processes of reckoning and recovery, enhanced by innovative poetic forms that mirror the nonlinear emotional and psychological experiences of trauma survivors. Called a ' gorgeous debut' by Solmaz Sharif and ' masterful' by Carl Phillips, All the Flowers Kneeling is at once grand and intimate, commanding and deeply vulnerable. It revels in rediscovering and reconfiguring the self, and ultimately becomes an essential testament to the human capacity for resilience, endurance, and love.
Paul Tran received their BA in history from Brown University and MFA in poetry from Washington University in St. Louis, where they were the chancellor' s graduate fellow and senior poetry fellow. They have been awarded a 2021 Fellowship in Literature from the National Endowment for the Arts, the Ruth Lilly and Dorothy Sargent Rosenberg Fellowship from the Poetry Foundation and the Discovery/Boston Review Poetry Prize. Currently a Wallace Stegner fellow at Stanford University, Paul' s work appears in The New Yorker, Poetry, and elsewhere.
