Award Name Lambda Literary Awards Award category Lesbian Poetry For many performance poets, the simple act of writing down the words can kill a poem's spirit and energy.
Not so with Daphne Gottlieb.
In Why Things Burn, Gottlieb tackles sexuality, lesbian issues, rape, urban life, and a host of other topics with the same power of her live performances.
