Powerful First Full-Length Collection of Poems from Trish Hopkinson. A GODLESS ASCENDS is the full-length collection of poems by Trish Hopkinson. In this intensely personal collection the poet's close attention to language propels the narrative and brings its scenes to life: I see her mother writing essays in college; I see the poet telling her daughter, do not mistake urgency for love; I see her watching over her injured son in his hospital bed. These poems produce an aura of the mystical nature of making a family and keeping it together while remaining true to the poet's creative life.

Women's Studies.
