HOW DO WE RECKON OUR PAST WITHOUT BEING RAVAGED BY IT? HOW DO WE USE PEOPLE, AND THEIR BODIES, TO EXPRESS OURSELVES? Saeed Jones’s debut poetry collection Prelude to Bruise was the winner of the 2015 Stonewall Book Award/Barbara Gittings Literature Award and a finalist for the 2015 National Book Critics Circle Award.
