Myriam Gurba - Poppy State: A Labyrinth of Plants and a Story of Beginnings

From the award-winning author of Creep comes a powerful book by a writer at the peak of her powers—at once a love letter to California and a literary tour de force that tells the story of resilience and reclamation through a relationship with plants, memory, myth, and indigenous knowledge.

“A truly distinctive, authentic, and dynamic literary voice. . . Myriam Gurba is one of our great American intellectuals.” – Los Angeles Times
