Moving through rural landscapes of the speaker's youth, contradictions of faith, consequences of desire, and fragmentations of trauma, \u003ci\u003eJOAN \u003c\/i\u003eis structured as an excavation of the speaker's most intimate moments, combining poetry with historical quotations, visual collage, and a sequence of film stills. Through vivid lyric moments, the poems construct a speaker and world both intimate and charged­--\"I have to touch my farthest feeling,\" \"the sapphire dusk draping its lace arias\"--with clarity and vibrant intensity. Refusing resolution, these poems dwell in rupture, reinvention, and fluid forms of gender that come to life outside of inherited boundaries. This collection speaks from the margins, searching for a body the self might inhabit and asking what it means to transform through language, gender, and desire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ci\u003eJOAN \u003c\/i\u003eis the winner of the Phoenix Emerging Poet Book Prize. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jake Rose\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Chicago Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/26\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.46lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.48h x 6.57w x 0.35d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780226848235\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eJake Rose \u003c\/b\u003eis a poet, artist, and educator living in California's Central Valley.
