Kitchen-Dwellers Testimony - Ladan Osman

Detalii:

nWinner of the Sillerman First Book Prize for African Poets, The Kitchen-Dwellers Testimony asks: Whose testimony is valid? Whose testimony is worth recording? Osmans speakers, who are almost always women, assert and reassert in an attempt to establish authority, often through persistent questioning. Specters of race, displacement, and colonialism are often present in her work, providing momentum for speakers to reach beyond their primary, apparent dimensions and better communicate. The Kitchen-Dwellers Testimony is about love and longing, divorce, distilled desire, and all the ways we injure ourselves and one another. Ladan Osmans work has appeared in American Life in Poetry, Artful Dodge, Narrative Magazine, Prairie Schooner, RHINO, and Vinyl Poetry. Her chapbook, Ordinary Heaven, appears in Seven New Generation African Poets: A Chapbook boxed set.
