**WINNER of the JUDITH A. MARKOWITZ AWARD** **2020 LAMBDA LITERARY AWARD WINNER** **LONGLISTED for the HEARTLAND BOOKSELLERS AWARD** In this debut collection by African American poet Xandria Phillips, *HULL* explores emotional impacts of colonialism and racism on the Black queer body and the present-day emotional impacts of enslavement in urban, rural, and international settings. HULL is lyrical, layered, history-ridden, experimental, textured, adorned, ecstatic, and emotionally investigative.
