Description
Sneha Madhavan-Reese's debut poetry collection, Observing the Moon, was a finalist for the 2013 Alfred G. Bailey Prize and sparkles with compositional flair -- and lyrical balance. These poems of family and generational memory are incisive, mature, confident, and savvy in their awareness of the multiple contradictions of cultural desire. "...clever, brazen and playful... There's a peacefulness within this collection that makes it very accessible and highly enjoyable." Kerri Cull, in her judge's comments for the Alfred G. Bailey Prize.
