Winner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African Poets Winner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African Poets, EthiopianAmerican Mahtem Shiferraw's Fuchsia examines conceptions of thedisplaced, disassembled, and nomadic self. Embedded in her poems arecolors, elements, and sensations that evoke painful memories relatedto deep-seated remnants of trauma, war, and diaspora. Yet rooted inthese losses and dangers also lie the opportunities for mending andreflecting, evoking a distinct sense of hope. Elegant and traditional,the poems in Fuchsia examine what it means to both recall the pastand continue onward with a richer understanding.
