Poetry. In Skurtu, Romania, the poet lands physically and emotionally in the country of her family's forgotten history, and she familiarizes herself in this foreign place through the dynamic of an alienating love story. Tara Skurtu's poems have the logic of memory, the vivid spontaneity of dreams, and the precision of calculus—each line is, in a sense, an asymptote continually approaching the limits of language and love. This poetry holds a lens over every moment, alters the perception of home, invites the reader in as both foreigner and guest.
