DIURNE: Winner of 2019 Tupelo Press Sunken Garden Chapbook Award

By admin in contests Tags: , ,

Thrilled to announce that my project, DIURNE, which was written over the course of a month while at Vermont Studio Center in 2017, has been selected by Timothy Donnelly as the winner of the 2019 Tupelo Press Sunken Garden Chapbook Award!

Kristin George Bagdanov’s Diurne begins with the proclamation:  “a line each hour of waking / a poem each day of making.”  In the gorgeously lyrical hybrid text that follows, Bagdanov does the nearly impossible—that is, she merges procedural and confessional modes of writing.  The end result is a text as deeply felt as it is restrained, as grounded as it is philosophical in its implications.
