Divya Victor, author of Kith
Submitted by Room on Wed, 04/03/2019 - 11:42amA Room of One's Own is thrilled to welcome poet Divya Victor, author of Kith!
Kith describes post-colonialist relation from the painful psychohistorical perspective of a hybrid, in multiple exiles. Victor reaps the pain, reams the pain, approaches the painful material from striated vantages, using discrete methodologies of extraction. This is not a pretty poetry of nostalgia for bittersweet pungencies, no invitation to savor bemusing exoticisms; this poetry invites disassociation from that which is no longer to be borne.
