The Tenderness of Glass by Jodi Lin 

Part memoir and part manifesto, The Tenderness of Glass, is a non-traditional book of narrative verse and prose poetry. Each of the book's six parts are named after a Tibetan Buddhist Bardo. Beginning with the "Bardo of Life," we follow the Goddess Palden Lhamo through the underworld to her next chosen body. The body she chooses is Jodi—transgender and native of the Pacific Islands, raised with abuse in the United States.
