Bright YOUNG WOMAN

Bright YOUNG WOMAN is Karen Joy Pangantihon's debut collection of poetry. Pangantihon pulls the veil and invites readers into a world of love, heartbreak, and intimate look into her collection of boundless and capricious feelings. Bright Young Woman celebrates and honors the full, delicious experience of a young woman's voyage in questioning the Earth she walks on, systems in power, the impetuosities and nuances of romantic relationships as well as the cultural challenges faced as a child of immigrant parents and first generation Filipina American, all the while growing, learning, and becoming.
