Riassunto

In her debut chapbook of poetry, Decipher the Smoke, Nora Gupta “scratch[es] through the pretty pink, the hot pink, the girly-girl pink universe” to reveal the true, indiscernible colors of girlhood. The browned bulb of childhood. The way bodies slither under white LED gas station lights into self-discovery. Through these poems, Gupta asks her reader to reckon with—and perhaps even decipher—the thinning line between girlhood and grief, one often stepped right over without second thought. Indeed, while reckoning with the simultaneous devastating loss of a close family member and realization of her own impending womanhood, Gupta navigates a world of escalation and apocalypse to uncover what—shade by shade—girlhood truly means to her.
