12 week poetry series “Bound: for Amelia Rosselli”

Each week for twelve consecutive weeks, I am uploading a soundscape poem on my Soundcloud page as part of a special series “Bound: for Amelia Rosselli” I created to mark time in lockdown.

“Bound: for Amelia Rosselli” is an homage to Amelia Rosselli, one of the most important Italian poets of the twentieth century. She was also a musicologist with an acute sense for prosody and rhythm in poetic language. Rosselli was an exile and a poet of mixed heritage – Italian father and English mother – who moved constantly between languages (Italian, English and French), territories and cultures. She has been and continues to be an important inspiration for my own multilingual writing practice.
