-Finalist in the 2023Big OtherBook Award for Poetry Sarah Audsley's debut poetry collection, Landlock X, joins a growing body of adoptee poetics. By examining the consequences of the international transracial adoptee experienceher ownAudsley'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 landscapedespite the inheritance of displacement and removal from a country of originLandlock 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. ...From ';The Black Cows in the Foreground' it is unknown where the bones of your mother turned to fragments none in the painting of the black cows so where to grieve her body no parcel of land to plant sorrow in furrowed rows the black cows graze
