In Mix-Mix, Dani Putney excavates facets of their mixed-race heritage using reformulated text from the “Asian Romance Guide to Marriage by Correspondence” to consider their relationships with their Filipina mother and late white father, problematizing—but also attempting to understand—the circumstances that led to their parents’ marriage across two continents via mail correspondence. In addition, the collection puts queerness and non-binary identity into conversation with heritage, invocations of pop-culture icons, reflections on the speaker’s daddy issues, and general explorations of queer sexuality. In Mix-Mix Putney seems to ask, “Why were we born? How do we live with the circumstances of our birth, both historically and culturally?”
