"Solidarity, Motherhood and Immigration"
Poet Divya Victor talks about her transnational experiences. "I realized that alienation is not inherent; alienation has legal and bureaucratic sources that I needed to observe....And that’s why the poems about inter-racial parenting and birthing are also about geopolitical control, and fabricated national borders"

What Sparks Poetry:
Martin Mitchell on Ellen Bryant Voigt's Messenger
"She is a poet of control and precision; across decades and amid differing poetical movements, Voigt is steadfast in her adherence to a clear-eyed iambic elegy—an elegy defined most strikingly by her devotion to unsentimental self-interrogation and her equally unflinching assessments of public life." |
