Fried Fish and Flour Biscuits

Calling upon the personal memories and ancestral antecedents of her Anishinaabe family heritage, Molly McGlennen writes poems for "Fried Fish and Flour Biscuits" that render the continuance and celebration of the complex realities of Native American life in the 21st century. McGlennen's collection of finely rendered lyrical and narrative pieces recounts the story of physical and spiritual nourishment, as the poet begins by telling her readers that her poems, like family recipes, are best served aloud.
