Scheduled for late 2021
How to be Silent is my poetic celebration of the life and work of Tillie Olsen.
My poems are inspired by, and imaginative responses to, all I have read, seen and heard about Tillie Olsen: recorded voices of Tillie's family, Tillie's own voice through her books and numerous interviews and a wealth of historical documentation.
'What demanded to be written, did not. It seethed, bubbled, clamoured, peopled me.' (Tillie Olsen, from Silences)
This chapbook is scheduled for publication by dancinggirlpress in late 2021.
