Out of Texas is a collection of poems that explores a woman’s journey from childhood to motherhood. Out of the state that shaped her to the distant lands of Southeast Asia, Latin America and Africa, the poet roots us in deep familial bonds between mothers and daughters, fathers and children, husbands and wives, sisters and brothers. Those bonds both break and heal the poet as she looks for agency and redemption.
