Amaranth Borsuk publishes new poem in Cordite Poetry Review

The most recent issue of Australian contemporary poetry and art journal Cordite Poetry Review focuses on the theme of Propaganda. The poetry section, curated by Simon Groth and Mez Breeze, features works that interrogate language's use and abuse and includes a new poem by IAS faculty member Amaranth Borsuk titled "Whisper Campaign." In the editors' words, "This distinction—of poetry manifesting as an antithesis to propaganda—can lead to the hopeful harnessing of poesis as a counteraction agent: a salve, if not a panacea. […] The works here by their mere existence seek out propaganda, expose it, neutralise it, counter it. If you need reassurance that we are not beholden to our basest instincts, these poems are a good place to start."
