We Are Reckless by Christy Prahl 1st Runner-Up for Chicago Reader's Best New Poetry Collection by a Chicagoan, 2023!
"These poems boldly ask how we define a self, a marriage, and a family via eerie and frightening worlds. We Are Reckless is a dazzling debut." -Hadara Bar-Nadav, author of The New Nudity
"I love the wild curiosity of this book, its attention to the off-kilter, the liminal, the often unseen and unacknowledged. I love the way nothing is beneath the notice of these searching, pulsing, vibrantly alive poems." -Kasey Jueds, author of Keeper and The ThicketAn Illinois Arts Council grant recipient and multiple Best of the Net and Pushcart Prize nominee, my work has appeared in a host of national and international journals. I have enjoyed residencies at both Ragdale and The Writers Colony at Dairy Hollow and split my time between Chicago and rural Michigan.
