Inconsolable Objects

<p>Part cautionary tale,&nbsp;part love letter to the broken objects and people of this world, <em>Inconsolable Objects</em> is driven by the search for beauty in the forsaken. The poems are populated with sentient tornados,&nbsp;fetal mice floating in a snow globe, soldiers marching past a disembodied heart, and&nbsp;birds that have learned to imitate the sound of an AK47. In her spectacular debut, Gomez&nbsp;offers&nbsp;a call and response to all of us stumbling towards connection. These poems witness, interrogate, mourn,&nbsp;praise, and&nbsp;provide&nbsp;a&nbsp;hopeful glimpse into the mysteries of our shared experience.</p>
