"Write me an autograph
in the village they call me Sophie cocaine"
Sophie Podolski, tr. Emiliano Battista and Ros Schwartz.
I take Bolaño's body of work to be an infinite syllabus, and I've discovered so many rad writers that way, esp. Podolski.

“you seem to hear angels mocking you,
you seem to cry out look at the stars!
and run rapid against a fence of spine.”
Amelia Rosselli, Sleep.
AR grew up in exile, daughter of an anti-fascist martyr. Her Italian poems have been widely translated by US poets— but she wrote Sleep in English.
