Engaging with centuries of poetic tradition, \u003ci\u003eUltraviolet of the Genuine\u003c\/i\u003e leaves room for the development of everything, abstract and alive, even giving ants the spotlight in one long poem. These poems propose a new metaphysics, weighing everyday moments wherein the elusive and ultraviolet radiate. Again, Brooks-Motl challenges the ways we read poetry, not by opting for either the head or the heart, but by choosing both.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eHannah Brooks-Motl\u003c\/b\u003e is the author of the poetry collections \u003ci\u003eThe New Years\u003c\/i\u003e (2014), \u003ci\u003eM\u003c\/i\u003e (2015) and \u003ci\u003eEarth\u003c\/i\u003e (2019).
