The Hungry Ghost Diner
by Kelly Ann Ellis
Ellis's debut poetry collection explores the everyday lives of working class women in America. These poems are emotionally honest, humorous, and filled with sharp wit. Using pop culture references, literary allusions, and a wholly fresh poetic voice, Ellis tackles big subjects such as poverty, inequality, and the resilience of the human spirit.
