These poems move the way a road trip does — through landscapes that feel both chosen and accidental, places that leave a mark before you know what's happening. South Carolina back roads, West Virginia mountains, the flat cold edge of Lake Michigan: each setting is also a state of mind.
Weekend Revival is a chapbook about the relationship between place and identity — how the ground beneath you shapes what you're able to say, and how leaving one place for another teaches you something about both. The revival of the title is quiet. It doesn't announce itself. It happens in the looking.
Andrew Mack's debut chapbook, first published in 2019 and the book that preceded the founding of Loblolly Press.
