worst book summary ever

From the publisher’s website:

In an exciting month for Houghton Mifflin poets, Natasha Trethewey received the Pulitzer Prize for her collection Native Guard, and Erica Funkhouser was granted a prestigious Guggenheim Fellowship.

The elegiac Native Guard pays homage to the Louisiana Native Guards, one of the first black regiments called into service during the Civil War. […] Funkhouser’s fifth collection, Earthly, will be released next year and will feature poems that explore what it means to be earthly.
