Winner of the 2024 Loraine Williams Poetry Prize (US), selected by Cole Swensen
From Cole Swensen:“Trace History” addresses some of the largest issues inherent in being human—what we leave behind and to whom. And it does so with a delicate obliquity that suggests other themes and concerns that, because they’re not directly named, remain charged with emergence. The language throughout strikes a similar balance of clarity and ambiguity, leaving the whole radiating with both presence and potential.

From Ilya Kaminsky: “We are lovers of something other than spring,” this poet says. The phrasing in this text is beautiful, the diction unexpected, the tone surprising. And the emotion, too, is real here, tenderness is hard to achieve in poetry, but this author does it well, noticing us “in search of consolation,” at our humblest, and seeing how there is “something soft about the yellowing of a face.”
