Included in LitHub’s Most Anticipated Poetry of 2026Ms. Magazine Best Poetry of 2025 and 2026The poems in with snow pouring southward past the window turn with and for relatives and beloveds across seas and oceans, continents and nations, languages and histories. In this collection, public and personal archives work with literary translations across several dialects of the Inupiaq language, and re-complexify Arctics at a time when empires once again seem interested in flattening and erasing millennia of Indigenous inhabitation, care, and situatedness. It was written between Massachusetts, Inuit Nunaat, Sápmi, the “Old World” and through waves of overlapping pandemics, political and social exigencies, and solidarities.

This book of poems is a writerly text that welcomes active participation from the reader; it is not a passive and consumptive experience but an exercise of semantic and syntactical calisthenics that stretches this reader's habits of reading and meaning making. It is disorienting to find one's footing in Kane's literary landscape that is vast and expansive, but the compass for the reader is an open curiosity and willingness to explore, to be with language in a new way.
