Bluff
Danez Smith
In April, Danez Smith won the Minnesota Book Award for Poetry, (his second) for his latest collection, Bluff.
“Written after two years of artistic silence, during which the world came to a halt due to the COVID-19 pandemic and Minneapolis became the epicenter of protest following the murder of George Floyd, Bluff is Danez Smith’s powerful reckoning with their role and responsibility as a poet and with their hometown of the Twin Cities. This is a book of awakening out of violence, guilt, shame, and critical pessimism to wonder and imagine how we can strive toward a new existence in a world that seems to be dissolving into desolate futures.”
Bluff, as well as Smith’s earlier poetry, is on our shelves now.
