Anna, the border washed your tongue from our tongue.

Anna, the border is a voice that said our name.

 

"Not Akhmatova" by Noah Berlatsky navigates the intricate dance between homage and reinvention, drawing inspiration from the works of Russian poet Anna Akhmatova. A book of quasi translations, appropriations, and alienations, it is also an authentic and unique examination of rootlessness and the need to belong. Berlatsky's argumentative and proud poems explore his own relationship with Russia as well as the concept of Jewish diaspora identity.
