Hannah Emerson’s latest collection of poems, The Kissing of Kissing, will be published as the first book in Milkweed Editions's new Multiverse series on March 8th, 2022.
From Milkweed: "In language that is both bracingly new and embracingly intimate, Emerson, a nonspeaking autistic artist and poet, generously invites the reader to meet yourself anew, 'to bring your beautiful nothing' into the light. Emerson’s sensibility cascades in joyful, liberatory, generous, and insistent rhythms that carry language beyond itself. The Kissing of Kissing finds breath in the woods and the worlds we share, together 'becoming burst becoming / the waking dream.'"
