This ferocious debut reads like no other. Where grief and exuberance dance under an encauldroned blood moon, mellifluous pyrotechnic cantatas hurl cacophonous fissile sparks, the unsung summoned into being. I am astounded by the invention and necessity of Mackenzie Polonyi's mutating forms, multigenerational matriarchy writ mythically large and tragically precise in the wide wake of Hungary's seeded diaspora., This formally restless--indeed, volcanic--collection disgorges poems of testimony and supplication, unsettling yet embodied, mercurial yet real. Ravenously, Mackenzie Polonyi embraces her maternal genealogy, transforming tragic histories of violence into a lyrical lament of immense linguistic intensity. This is poetry that turns lack into excess, elegy into a procession of alchemical adjectives, pain into a fever of the figurative. Opening this book is akin to entering a butcher shop where a girl-child--'raised secondhand homesick'--has been hoarding her grief between sugared milk and vinegar. Her rebellion against speechlessness is mounting page after page: 'The history of a daughter is growing a garden of blood for a wound with a stomach of air that will swallow time like a mirror.', This ferocious debut reads like no other. Where grief and exuberance dance under an encauldroned blood moon, mellifluous pyrotechnic incantatas hurl cacophonous fissile sparks, the unsung summoned into being. I am astounded by the invention and necessity of Mackenzie Polonyi's mutating forms, multigenerational matriarchy writ mythically large and tragically precise in the wide wake of displacement., This ferocious debut reads like no other.

I am astounded by the invention and necessity of Mackenzie Polonyi's mutating forms, multigenerational matriarchy writ mythically large and tragically precise in the wide wake of Hungary's seeded diaspora., In Mackenzie Polonyi's stunning debut collection, the human body becomes a landscape inscribed by intergenerational story, memory, and trauma. In these visceral lyric poems, boundaries between self and nature dissolve. Polonyi unearths ancestral connections--'stone ruins cob-webbing my sternum'--as her symptoms and injuries merge with her suspended yet rooted foremothers' own ruptures. An alchemical blend of folklore and science preserves rituals like 'pigeon-milk' tonics amid seismic turbulence, propelling Polonyi's searing language. Wonderfully kaleidoscopic in its exploration of a scattered and often uncertain identity, this book transports readers into realms where memory ossifies into 'rusted peafowl-blue' relics. Blistering yet nurturing, Post-Volcanic Folk Tales reckons with how inherited psychic and corporeal complexities ultimately give rise to a profoundly compassionate yet questioning devotion, revealing: 'my hands / they are becoming your hands' across endless loss and regeneration. Look out! This book will change you., In Mackenzie Polonyi's stunning debut collection, the human body becomes a landscape inscribed by multigenerational story, memory, and trauma.

Synopsis
A winner of the National Poetry Series, selected by acclaimed poet Ishion Hutchinson, Post-Volcanic Folk Talesis "incendiary art.", In Post-Volcanic Folk Tales, Mackenzie Polonyi explores what it means to be an unfluent daughter of Hungarian diaspora, far away from a country called home since birth. Raised by her maternal grandmother - a refugee of the 1956 Hungarian Uprising and ensuing refugee crisis - Mackenzie coos into the acoustic wound of a geographical linguistic in-between while troubling perceptions of death and time and memory, worming herself into folkloric-familial spaces by way of vowels and diacritics, and gathering cartographic information from her beloved grandmother's body, name, belongings, and stories while shepherding her through hospice. In her debut collection, Mackenzie is disobedient and devoted, her world-building is factual and folkloric. Here, she reconceptualizes guardian angels, reclaims her ancestral language of horses, reflects upon imperfections of remembrance, demonstrates violences of victimhood, explores complexities of 'matriviticultural' psychoemotional inheritance and familial illness, and ultimately, archives and grieves by way of imaginative invention., Raised in a household of paprika in New Jersey by her homesick maternal grandmother--a refugee of the 1956 Hungarian Uprising and ensuing refugee crisis--Polonyi necessarily explores prescribed responsibilities of diasporic only-daughterhood. While shepherding her beloved grandmother through hospice at home, Polonyi wanders into slippery and informative familial-folkloric reveriescapes, gathering cartographic knowledge from her grandmother's body, name, language, personal possessions, and stories. In a "fever of the figurative" she desperately records the residues of her grandmother's waning memories while condemning violent political conditions, interrogating intergenerational psychoemotional curses, and contemplating ethics of witnessing. What do we give each other? How do we metabolize what we inherit for healing? In Post-Volcanic Folk Tales , Polonyi's world-breaking-and-building propels dreamlike peregrinations, tender questions, vulnerable unsnarlings, and spectral cycle-stopping communions. Devoted yet vitally disobedient, she sings, archives, grieves, names her rage, and remedies "across endless loss and regeneration."
