Читать книгу tsunami vs. the fukushima 50 - Lee Ann Roripaugh - Страница 6
ОглавлениеThis book is a tribute to, in memory and honor of, the victims and survivors of the 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami, and the subsequent Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster.
For heroes, both visible and invisible.
For the ferocity of women. May we all survive and rise.
For the troubled legacies and unexpected gifts of trauma: the wounds and the superpowers, the hypervigilance, the Mothra-like antennae.
For Kundiman, beautiful poetry tribe.
For sisters, chosen family, and friends: Emily Haddad, Cathy Flum, Susan Wolfe, Pen Pearson, Caroline Hong, Allison Adelle Hedge Coke, Lindy Obach, Bridget Jacobs, Katy Beem, Natanya Ann Pulley, and Darlene Farabee, among many others, with love.
For all of my many wonderful colleagues and students at the University of South Dakota, the University of Nebraska MFA in Writing, and the Carlow University MFA in Writing, with much gratitude for your inspiration and community.
For all of the mentors, editors, journals, presses, and reading venues who have supported my work over the years with such kindness and generosity—including a special thanks to Daniel Slager and the entire staff of Milkweed Editions.
For Nobu, Aiko, Nanami, Kuzuri, Yuki, Tampopo, Genji, Muku, Kenji, Ten-chan, and Kumo.
And, with love always, for Bruce, my sweet giant, who fills the cracks with gold.
