Momtaza Mehri

the 2018

Young People’s Laureate of London

“I think the poetry I write is interested in questions or ideas around disruption or movement, whether it’s movement of people or places, movement between different ideas, between how things change over different generations, and in themes of migration and urban spaces.”

An Excerpt of Fiction

from the unpublished novel, FISHPOND

 
 

“Each of the sisters has a strange gift. Big Eye can see ghosts. When she was young, she could not tell them apart from the living. It wasn’t until she was ten years old, when the sisters’ own grandmother died in her sleep one winter, that Big Eye started to notice the dead.”

— Janalyn Guo

For a futile moment, I think I see a flicker, as if you know it’s my birthday, as if that part of your brain tissue isn’t covered in plaque yet, but you move on to the next letter, your eyes on the red apple.

Poet

Irene Vázquez

“Twenty-two years brimming with runaway energy & shouldered need”
— Irene Vázquez

“One hand splayed. Hair in mouth. One day there would have to be a choice. My body or the poem.”
