Description

A collection by award-winning poet Kimberly Reyes that explores erased histories.

Through her latest collection, Kimberly Reyes navigates the physical, hereditary, and liminal worlds between land, time, and memory. The poems in vanishing point take us to San Francisco, Ireland, and the Atlantic Ocean, reclaiming and examining contested space as the poet seeks to revive left-behind histories, reconsider what we see, and reveal what we cannot see.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?

Kirkus praises the collection as "an unflinching collection of poems from a bold literary voice." Harriet Books highlights the intelligent intertwining of intimacy and testimony, noting the innovative use of visual art and QR codes linking to film poems, reflecting hybridity at the collection's core. The California Review of Books commends Reyes’s experimental approach—incorporating colour FBI sketches, etchings, and video poems—to deepen the engagement with history’s injustices, emphasising the book’s richness and intentionality.
