What Sparks Poetry:
Johannes Göransson on Ann Jäderlund's [Not here]
"The influence between texts seems to flow in mulitple, volatile, anachronistic directions. It’s perhaps even wrong for me to say that the poems are based on Celan’s and Bachmann’s correspondence. The correspondence is one source, but from these letters, Jäderlund’s poetry is brought into contact with Hölderlin, Heidegger, Shakespeare, Rilke and others. Like Manny Farber’s infamous concept of 'termite art,' Jäderlund’s writing 'goes always forward eating its own boundaries.'" |

Devyn Andrews Interviews Daniel Borzutzky
"In his latest collection, The Murmuring Grief of the Americas, poet and translator Daniel Borzutzky continues his searing investigation into mechanisms of control, systemic dehumanization past and present, and the limits and power of language. Exploring both real and imagined landscapes, these poems express the collective and individual pain wrought by the Western capitalist project, where profit comes at the expense of humanity."
