National Poetry Month: Eleni Sikelianos

Born into a family of bohemians, poets, ne’er-do-wells, visionaries, and smalltime hustlers, Eleni Sikelianos is a poet, writer, collaborator, and “master of mixing genres.” She grew up in earshot of the ocean, in small coastal towns near Santa Barbara, and has since lived in San Francisco, New York, Paris, Athens (Greece), Boulder (Colorado), and Providence. Deeply engaged with ecopoetics, her work takes up urgent concerns of environmental precarity and ancestral lineages. Her tenth book of poetry, Your Kingdom came out in 2023. Those ten volumes are in company with two amemoir-verse-image-novels. More info at: https://www.elenisikelianos.com. Insta: @elenisikelianos
