Poised for Flight

Bag om Poised for Flight

Rosie Prohías Driscoll was enthralled from an early age by the family stories recounted by her mother, grandmother, and great aunts about their lives in Cuba before the family was exiled to the United States. At the same time, she felt a void left by the untimely death of her father and the lost connection to his family who stayed on the island. In her debut poetry collection, Poised for Flight, Prohías Driscoll excavates these family roots to uncover a poignant story of loss and resurrection spanning five generations. In the telling, she cultivates trees and intertwines branches where her children - and the readers of her poems - can find shelter and firm footing for flight.
