About glint:

AKaiser’s richly lyrical glint is a book of refractions and fracturing: a collection that cracks the interior cleanly open, allowing for light and insight to bend and enter through myriad angles...Kaiser has crafted a collection that reckons arrestingly with loss and regeneration—historical, familial, personal—and casts a keen eye toward “boundaries between / mutable and imperishable.” These poems startle by the glint of their own making—a remarkable debut.
