An image of the book cover of Bonememory by Anna Veprinksa accompanied by the quote "Here is a poet who knows all too well that language is here to wake us up, and she does it playfully, tenderdly, and unabashedly, and with a style that is all her own," credited to Ilya Kaminsky, author of Deaf Republic.
Our histories live in our bones. Our bones are made of history. Our bones remember.
