Her writing is an unabashed celebration of place, a home for motherhood, matrilineal struggle, kink, and the pastoral. It’s a genius re-mapping of Detroit for those lost in its mythology, the native daughter challenging us to recalibrate our sight. Her love for the city is palpable, imbued with her frankness, her fun, her queerness, and her history. - The Whiting
