Description:

This volume follows her award-winning novel, Ocotillo Dreams and a previous book of poetry, Folsum Lockdown.

"The poems in How Fire Is a Story, Waiting are consumed with naming the problems of the world and trying—however provisionally—to set them right. Palacio's verse, dense with imagery, is by turns sorrowful and sardonic, and always the voice is her own. There's a little universe in this book: enter and learn." - David Starkey, Santa Barbara Poet Laureate Emeritus
