Synopsis
A soul dive and a psalm, Gion Davis’ s Designated Stranger spans years, states, genders, and climates as it confronts the concurrent apocalypses of being trans and poor in America. Like the designated hitter or designated driver, the trans poet is brought in to get everyone home. The poems in this collection are about living — not forever, but for the ride.
