About the book
We gather marks. Our bodies, our stories, our histories and our world are made of infinite visible and invisible moments. We make marks to record, to remember, to honour, to protest. We mark time, for no matter how many times the sun sets, always it rises in a new dawn.
Jazz Money returns with her much-anticipated new poetry collection to ask about all the ways we rise to a moment. mark the dawn is a celebration of community and gathering, while negotiating the legacies of the intersecting histories we inherit. As a queer First Nations poet, Jazz Money unflinchingly declares that, despite everything that has come before, we remain glorious, abundant, sexy, joyous and determined.
