Un-becoming

Un-becoming is Charnell’s forthcoming debut poetry chapbook from Thirty West Publishing House. These semi-autobiographical free verse and prose poems explore Black feminine embodiment in the Midwest and the making, unmaking, and remaking of the body in spaces that are conceptualized as both non-places and white spaces. Previous poems in the chapbook have appeared in Public Pool, Ruminate Magazine, and Crab Creek Review. The chapbook will be available for purchase later this year!
