PROTOCOLS: An Erasure - now available for pre-order
An urgent, poetic exploration of power, memory, belief, and the dangers and possibilities of language. PROTOCOLS: An Erasure transforms the world’s most influential antisemitic document, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, into an erasure poem exploring essential questions of power, history, and language. Accompanying the poem, a lyric essay excavates the my deep personal connection to the source text, weaving personal and collective history. Ayin Press, June 24, 2025
