Night Sky with Exit Wounds Review
Tumblr media
Night Sky with Exit Wounds by Ocean Voung, a 80 page poetry collection.
An extraordinary debut from a young Vietnamese American, Night Sky with Exit Wounds is a book of poetry unlike any other. Steeped in war and cultural upheaval and wielding a fresh new language, Vuong writes about the most profound subjects – love and loss, conflict, grief, memory and desire – and attends to them all with lines that feel newly-minted, graceful in their cadences, passionate and hungry in their tender, close attention
I rate this book 3/5 stars.
I was heaving high hopes from Ocean Voung, and it was so not what I was looking for that I remove another of his book from my personal wishlist. The poems didn't really resonate this me. I've never been in a position he or his parent have been in, but the poems didn't really elicit a reaction from me. If the book was a different size the poems could've fit better on the pages. There are quite a few where there is like 1-3 line on the next pages and it really is a pet peeve of mine. What he does really well is set a scene within his poetry, so that I what I really liked.
Maybe with a few more years under my belt, I can appreciate this a little more.
Do you have any questions? Or maybe some recommendations? Send me an ask here on Tumblr or tweet me.  If you wish to support me, you can buy me a coffee! Or even buy my debut fantasy novel, The Mending Road.

Sometimes when i cant sleep, i imagine Van Gogh singing Leonard Cohen's 'Hallelujah' in his cut ear and feeling peace.
Green voices in the rain, green rain in the voices.
Oh no. The sadness is intensifying. How rude.
Hey [knocks on my skull], can we go home now?
-Ocean Vuong, Beautiful Short Loser

I can say it was gorgeous now, my harm, because it belonged to no one else.

I promise you, i was here. I felt things that made death so large it was indistinguishable from air - and i went on destroying inside it like wind in a storm.

I was a boy-
Which meant i was a murderer of my childhood. And like all murderers, my god was stillness. My God, he was still there. Like something prayed for by a man with no mouth.
