Mark the Dawn

A dazzling and impressive follow-up to Money’s highly acclaimed debut, how to make a basket.

We gather marks. Our bodies, our stories, our histories and our world are made of an infinite amount of visible and invisible moments. We make marks to record, to remember, to honour, to protest. We mark time, for no matter how many times the sun sets, always it rises in a new dawn.

Jazz Money returns with her much anticipated new poetry collection to ask about all the ways we rise to a moment. Mark the Dawn is a celebration of community and gathering, while negotiating the legacies of intersecting histories as a queer First Nations person. These poems sing out with love declaring that, despite everything that has come before, we remain glorious, abundant, sexy, joyous and determined.
