Description

Poet and translator Nina Murray explores the life and myth of Larysa Kosach, the Ukrainian feminist thinker and poet known by her pen-name Lesya Ukrainka. With the richness of fairytale, Murray weaves a story following several generations, the women that carry them and the losses that follow them. These are poems about blood, homelands, and three miraculous thimbles.

Nina Murray is the author of the poetry collections Glapthorn Circular (LiveCanon Poetry, 2023) and Alcestis in the Underworld (Circling Rivers Press, 2019) as well as several chapbooks.
