Vestiges - Jacob Minasian - Bog

In his first full-length collection, Minasian stretches poems into seasons, everyday moments into epics, and encounters with the natural world into portals to a reimagined Greek Mythology. Beginning in 2019, and splicing between the narrator's past in California and present in Ohio, he explores the dichotomy of the two environments and the division in the country around him. Part memoir, part social commentary, Vestiges charts the months that become the storm before the storm, the fractures widening into canyons.
