Text, Textile, Exile: Meditations on Poetics, Metaphor, Net-work

"Man Ray, Mina Loy, Gertrude Stein, themes of disorientation,
displacement, diaspora, defamiliarized language" and that's just the
d's. With such "little clues, like stitches coding a special
language," Maria Damen weaves an essay-narrative based on her Summer
2007 residency in Riga, Latvia.
