What counter-geographies and subterranean archives does the poet assemble? In their recent works — Village and Bard, Kinetic, both out with Coffee House Press — LaTasha N. Nevada Diggs and Anne Waldman trace related constructions of place and memory, the imperiled and essential wavelengths at the edge that propel and hold our communities across time. Voices full of voices travel ecstatic distance in these poems and records of friends and generations.
Featuring a guest introduction by Jennifer Firestone.
