Congratulations are in order for Boise State Creative Writing Faculty member Kerri Webster! Ahead of its fall release, her latest book of poetry, Lapis received a glowing review from Publishers Weekly. In Lapis, Webster writes into the vast space left by the deaths of three women: her mother, a mentor, and a friend. Using a wide array of lyric forms and meditations, Webster explores matrilineages both familial and poetic, weaving together death, spirituality, women, and a sense of the shifting earth into one “doctrine of Non-linear Revelation.” The book is scheduled to release on August 2nd, 2022.
