The George Ellenbogen Poetry Award Winner
Inspired by stories people told the author during a visit to Haiti, her birthplace, in 2011, the prose poems in this collection are flash reportages about life on the island of Hispaniola. Many of the short works in The Republics portray devastating personal histories and community pain in the wake of the 2010 earthquake.
