In the Middle of a Better World

A poetry collection about gay love, belonging, and being fully seen. In the Middle of a Better World is a queer guide to love and identity, a collection both formally inventive and infused with a bright, shimmering imagination. Part elegy, part battle cry, this highly anticipated new collection by Grant Chemidlin is unabashedly joyous in its exploration of desire, human connection, and community-those we're born into and those we build ourselves.
