- Summary:
- Vivek's debut collection of poetry, even this page is white, is a bold, timely, and personal interrogation of skin--its origins, functions, and limitations. Poems that range in style from starkly concrete to limber break down the barriers that prevent understanding ofwhat it means to be racialized. Shraya paints the face of everyday racism with words, rendering it visible, tangible, and undeniable.
