Find the Girl
Lightsey Darst
“ Find the Girl is a book of poems as urgent as its title. . . . Here we have an
important new poetic voice, one that fully earns Louis Zukofsky’s observation
that, in poetry, ‘The story must exist in each word or it cannot go on.’”
—Laura Kasischke, author of The Life Before Her Eyes
From Snow White to the Yde Girl and Helen of Troy to JonBenét, this lurid
and lyrical debut explores the transition from girlhood to womanhood
and America’s almost pornographic fascination with missing and exploited
children.
Born and raised in Florida, Lightsey Darst is a writing instructor, dancer,
and dance critic who lives in Minneapolis.
