What is Milk Black Carbon (Pitt Poetry Series) about?

Milk Black Carbon works against the narratives of dispossession and survival that mark the contemporary experience of many indigenous people, and Inuit in particular. In this collection, autobiographical details – motherhood, marriage, extended family and its geographical context in the rapidly changing arctic – negotiate arbitrary landscapes of our perplexing frontiers through fragmentation and interpretation of conventional lyric expectations. ** Review “Milk Black Carbon is at once a brilliant work of lyric art and a decoding of knowledges written ‘in the dark cursive of a wolf / circling on sea ice.’ Kane’s is a vertiginous sensibility, chiseled into language in a precarious time, as the rising seas ‘rephrase us.’ She writes in English and Inupiaq Eskimo, toward a horizon of radical futurity, against nostalgia, with awareness that there is no turning back. This is a twenty-first-century poetry, urgent, necessary, and of its time.” —Carolyn Forché “The black ink of a strong, strong hand.
