SPECIAL ISSUE OF MATTER: Russia and Politics
Russia, the American mirror - serfs and slaves, manifest destiny, nationalism, strongmen at the helm; socialism and New Deal perverted, revolution denied; LGBT outlawed, oligarchs in charge, racisms, religiosities, and misogynies enthroned. Pushkin to Pussy Riot, how do we engage Russia and her dead Kareninas, her poetry, her dissent? How does Russia affect us? What is our shared history and politics, the literature of our culture wars?
Collude with us with your submissions of poetry and poetry in translation. Send with bio to:
