samari zysk's haunting debut, it answers to my name, is an autobiographical collection of poetry that explores the boundary between language and identity. is it possible to love a language, despite its inability to hold all of you? a language that was not made for survival- for those who live on the margins?
it answers to my name is not just a coming-out, but a coming home. samari reminds us in this story, words are wounds, entry points. these wounds are a howl of joy, of anger, of freedom, of grief. it answers to my name chronicals lived-through unrealities. what we encounter here is not real, perhaps even impossible, but it is the truth.
and it will answer.
