Chapman is a poet and a lecturer at Yale, and her new memoir is Holler: A Poet among Patriots. A tour de force of prose style, Holler is poet Danielle Chapman’s moving and provocative portrait of her Southern military childhood — and an unflinching reckoning with what such an inheritance means now. A crucial book for anyone with a racial conscience in today’s divided America, Holler is one woman’s account of “the miraculous catastrophe” of being human in an inhumane world and proof that it’s possible to fully face who we are while searching for forgiveness.
