About the Book
The poems in Family Resemblances unfold in a series of overlapping narratives in which characters struggle with injury and healing, violence and fear, courage and forgiveness. Throughout this beautiful volume, the multiple meanings of family—whether formed by biology or choice—are questioned through careful attention to the often conflicting notions of connection, inheritance, absence, and escape. The truths these poems find are much like life itself: complex, provisional, and rich.

As the narrator sets out 'To see myself the size I really am,' we accompany her on this quest back and forth through time and the lives of her family as she uses all instruments available to learn what she must know.
