The carefully crafted poems in sweet euphemism highlight the centrality of family and transgenerational trauma. Lubar's strong poems recount Auntie E's experience in the Japanese internment camps during World War II and the subsequent pain that embroils a generation. These are painful, insightful, and light poems that demand our attention.
