Martha Serpas
In poems that bear witness to the eroding bayou country and its Cajun culture, Martha Serpas venerates a vanishing landscape defined by water. Her verses grapple with grieving a lost home and advocating for change. Most of the book is set in the Barataria-Terrebonne Estuary (Lafourche and Terrebonne Parishes), Louisiana. "Poem Found" was written in response to the levee breaches caused by Hurricane Katrina.
