Diaspora of Things, an extended poetic sequence, digs into the world of emotional artifacts, as a means to negotiate one's relationship with the dead. When the house is sold, the poet excavates her mother's mute collection of objects, as if after a shipwreck, searching for clues that might leap across and bridge the silence. In grief, our deepest values are exposed, questioned, and asserted - touching upon the nature of art at the core of survival itself. Portrait, auto-portrait, Diaspora of Things engages in phenomenology, as yearning for and gesture towards acceptance.

Autorenporträt
Jill Pearlman's poems explore ecstasy in the decentered world and self. Based in Providence, she has lived in New York, Paris and French Catalonia. Her poems (The Common, Salamander, Barrow Street, La Piccioletta Barca) wander the world as impatient travelers, reflecting voices of fluidity and transcultural values. She studied art history, worked as a music and arts journalist in New York and is the mother of two superb daughters.
