Julia Kolchinsky Dasbach

    La poesia di Julia Kolchinsky Dasbach si addentra nella rappresentazione lirica del trauma, in particolare nella produzione poetica contemporanea americana composta da emigrati dall'ex Unione Sovietica. Il suo percorso personale come rifugiata ebrea dall'Ucraina informa la sua esplorazione di temi quali identità, memoria e sradicamento. Attraverso un linguaggio e immagini meticolosamente costruiti, indaga i modi in cui la letteratura affronta ferite profonde, sia personali che collettive. Il suo lavoro offre una prospettiva avvincente sulle complessità dell'esperienza umana e sul potere dell'arte come mezzo di espressione e guarigione.

      Exploring the complexities of motherhood, this collection delves into the experiences of a poet-mother navigating pregnancy and the challenges of raising a neurodivergent child. It vividly portrays the raw and often grotesque realities of childbirth while questioning societal norms that impose shame on the female body. The poems reflect on the dual identity of mother and writer, emphasizing the need for self-care amidst the demands of nurturing others, ultimately seeking to harmonize these roles in a transformative journey.
