Reviews
"The poems in Corrie Lynn White's Gold Hill Family Audio have all the intimacy and urgency of prayers - prayers for a deeper connection to place, to family, to our very selves. They celebrate and they mourn, oftentimes in the very same line. This is a poet who understands that what we love can be both blessing and burden. This is a book that asks 'everyone's tired question: how to live the bonkers / life we're given and how the hell to love, ' then answers that question again and again by singing 'the broken chords of stumbling on.' These are the kinds of poems that reach into your life and change you." --Austin Smith, author of Flyover Country
"It is hard not to fall in love with the sensual, contemplative, sharp-eyed and often playful voice of Corrie Lynn White in her gutsy debut as she traverses the landscape of her personal history--its 'uneven ground' and its badass set of matriarchs--looking to chart her own 'narrow road' toward a complete and fulfilling life. Sometimes that means, 'delet[ing] Tinder, ' and going it alone. Sometimes that means embracing romance and its raw pleasure: 'I sleep next to him/like a hog/ when it finds/ cold mud.' Where must we go? And, who with? It is the anxieties of this poet's very human search that ring most true. And, as a woman, I have rarely felt so seen by a book." --Lauren Goodwin Slaughter, author of Spectacle
