A visual & lyrical declaration filled with fever & flight, REPRISE, Golden’s second collection of poetry & photography maps a personal search for safety in a U.S. that offers none.

Golden’s collection illuminates a path through national uprisings, anti-trans violence, family loss, and a global pandemic. These sonically playful poems and assertive, color-saturated portraits reveal a stark vulnerability that invites readers to look deeply at times of great and, possibly, liberatory uncertainty.

At its heart, this collection asks: Where is home? Who is free? What makes a nation?

, Golden honors the living siege & sorrow, rage & revival, joy & creation of being Black and trans in America.
