About Bluff: Poems

Written after two years of artistic silence, during which the world came to a halt due to the COVID pandemic and Minneapolis became the epicenter of protest following the murder of George Floyd, Bluff is Danez Smith’s powerful reckoning with their role and responsibility as a poet and with their hometown of the Twin Cities. This is a book of awakening out of violence, guilt, shame, and critical pessimism to wonder and imagine how we can strive toward new existence in a world that seems to be dissolving into desolate futures.Smith brings a startling urgency to these poems, their questions demanding a new language, a deep self-scrutiny, and virtuosic textual shapes. A series of “ars poetica” gives way to “anti poetica” and “ars america” to implicate poetry’s collusions with unchecked capitalism. A photographic collage accrues across a sequence to make clear the consequences of American acceptance of mass shootings. A brilliant long poem-part map, part annotation, part visual argument-offers the history of Saint Paul’s vibrant Rondo neighborhood before and after the city decided to run an interstate directly through it.Bluff is a kind of manifesto about artistic resilience, even when time and will can seem fleeting, when the places we most love-those given and made-are burning. In this soaring collection, Smith turns to honesty, hope, rage, and imagination to envision futures that seem possible.
