Descripción del título

"Sarah Audsley's debut poetry collection, Landlock X, joins a growing body of adoptee poetics. By examining the consquences of the international transracial adoptee experience--her own--Audsley's collection finds more questions than solid answers. Employing a variety of poetic forms, co-opting the pastoral tradition to argue for belonging to the rural landscape--despite the inheritance of displacement and removal from a country of origin--Landlock X tries to solve for all of the (adoptee's) variables and knows it is an impossible task that the 'I', 'you', and 'we' of the poems only approximate."--
