Congratulations to Society of Fellows member Gabriella Fee, who has been co-nominated (with Prof. Dora Malech) for a PEN America award<\/a>. In 2022, Fee and Malech translated Giovanna Cristina Vivinetto’s book of poetry, Dolore Minimo<\/a><\/em>, from its original Italian. Fee and Malech are now up for the PEN Award for Poetry in Translation. Finalists will be announced in February 2023.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Nov. 2021, five translations by Fee and Malech from Dolore Minimo <\/em>appeared online in digital magazine, The Offing<\/em>. Read the first poem excerpted below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

At that time everything
unfolded in known words.
Syllables counted on fingers
scanned the rhythm of the invisible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All was within reach,
all comprehensible,
and right around the corner
the trick had not yet nested.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Poetry was a concern
of other times, a mute appeal
to the true nature of things.
So disguised as to be confused
with the games and the dolls
of childhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At that time there were no disasters
to ration, discrepancies
to tend beneath loose clothing,
fathers to refuse or names
to follow to the bottom of ponds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Until the transition arrived
to turn the earth on which the step
had lingered, to tip
the bucket of toys, recalling
the invisible poetry that surrounded me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I never knew myself
except through that child
in pain. Suddenly
so divided, so very
incomplete.<\/p>\nfrom Dolore Minimo<\/em><\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Fee joined the KSAS Society of Fellows in 2022\u201323<\/a> as a project-worker with local organization Writers in Baltimore Schools. Huge kudos to Gabriella, Malech, and Vivinetto for this tremendous honor.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
