A love letter & homage text, ANTEDILUVIAN SONNETS traces the lineage of one mother of the modern sonnet, Bernadette Mayer. Loss is ageless, and transmutes the notion of any life being linear. Form is another way to consider time, another way for the ancient to become the future.

Super interesting discussion of book reviews, the state of criticism today, etc—for once from a perspective that centers poetry, rather than pretending that it doesn’t exist! podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcas…

What does it mean to write under the aura of another poet one admires, to write in celebration of another? What happens to language when you do? Don't miss today's conversation with Laynie Browne about writing toward Mei-Mei Berssenbrugge Audio📻: tinhouse.com/podcast/laynie-…

Witness this.

It’s my début collection of poetry, which I worked on for over ten years—stylistically and politically, it’s as much about that evolution and its constants as much as it is about history and where I come from as part of it. I still can’t believe it’s here, in actual book form.
