What Began Us
Poetry. Melissa Buzzeo's WHAT BEGAN US is a story of portraiture, a philosophy of the book, and the retrieval of a fifteen-year-old girl from the ruins of an unnamed (unnameable) event. This unsettling work builds out of the debris of fractionated memory and broken gestures toward an illuminated structure, a thought project well worth the time it will take to know it. "WHAT BEGAN US is an agitated, activated lyric that incants to a changing, pulsating beloved. What or who this beloved is goes beautifully unnamed. This is a new take on that very old form of the lyric. In its newness it is something shimmering and fully complicated."-Juliana Spahr
