Bullet Hole Riddle is a three-part narrative sequence charting one person's journey to make sense of an unwanted history. Framing personal experience as a series of collective acts, Miriam Barr's first major collection of poetry tells a story about the human psyche and the spaces between us.
"Mostly I like the surprise of images that carry complex emotional truths... There's the shock of the new... powerful and heartfelt." -- Heather McPherson
