Kit Frick Boeken

Jesse Lee Kercheval has selected A Small Rising Up in the Lungs, by Kit Frick of Brooklyn, New York, to receive the 2017 New American Poetry Prize. A MacDowell Colony fellow, Frick studied creative writing at Sarah Lawrence College and received her MFA from Syracuse University.Sparked by a fascination with space and proximity, the four interwoven series in A Small Rising Up in the Lungs traverse literary topographies and human relationships to urge the speaker into physical and emotional proximity to the other, at distances sometimes close and others unreachable. The first full-length collection from Kit Frick, A Small Rising Up in the Lungs is an agile excavation, at once playful and pensive, inquest and act of empathy. From imagined landscapes and escape routes to the coal mines of western Pennsylvania, these poems construct a possible heritage through an exploration of the terrain we navigate—on foot and in our blood.

From the author of I Killed Zoe Spanos comes a YA thriller in the vein of The White Lotus and Karen M. McManus's The Cousins following a doomed family reunion at a posh Caribbean resort, where old grudges and dangerous secrets culminate in murder. Eleven Mayweathers went on vacation. Ten came home. It's been years since the fragmented Mayweather clan was all in one place, but the engagement of Addison and Mason's mom to the dad of their future stepbrother, Theo, brings the whole family to sunny Cancún, Mexico, for winter break. Add cousin Natalia to the mix, and it doesn't take long for tempers to fray and tensions to rise. A week of forced family "fun" reveals that everyone has something to hide, and as secrets bubble to the surface, no one is safe from the fallout. By the end of the week, one member of the reunion party will be dead--and everyone's a suspect: The peacekeeper: Addison needs a better hiding place. The outsider: Theo just wants to mend fences. The romantic: Natalia doesn't want to talk about the past. The hothead: Mason needs to keep his temper under control. It started as a week in paradise meant to bring them together. But the Mayweathers are about to learn the hard way that family bonding can be deadly.
