A gorgeous collection laden with insight, twisty with language, witty but wistful, as lovingly assertive as a dear friend. I gobbled these up and returned soon to pick up the crumbs. — Liz Harmer, author of The Amateurs & Strange Loops
At every turn, What I Meant to Ask delivers an unflinching dialogue between uncomfortable questions, humor and fear and delight. — Rose Henbest Few poets possess such exhilarating language that keeps you on your toes, never quite sure which part of the forest you’re in. Meghan Kemp-Gee is a linguistic savage and vulnerable; sage and playful; elaborate and sincere. These marvelously clever poems feel as private as a whisper. This is a sit-up-and-listen-to-this kind of collection. This is a mic drop. — Amber McMillan, author of We Can't Ever Do This Again
