"The Oasis of My Nation" is Simone Youngblood's debut collection of ten poems, released in September 2008.
The work meditates on words, their unapparent immediacies and the relationship of both to god. Fundamentally, it might be called an "experimental" book of prayer and thanksgiving.
The poems were mostly written from the point at which Simone recalls (mis)acquiring language to 2008.
Based on responses Simone has received from patient people who have read "The Oasis of My Nation," I urge you to close your eyes and put on your reading glasses before embarking.
Simone is a poet born and raised in Northern California. She recently received her Masters in English/Creative Writing.
