Fluent in the Language of Burial is a fiercely intimate poetry collection that asks what it means to survive within systems that demand silence, even erasure. Through themes of queer identity, gender-based violence, inherited shame, religion, family and Black women’s embodiment, Thando Fuze’s poems explore the emotional and social architectures that teach vulnerable groups of people to bury parts of themselves.
