Exploring motherhood, myth, and transhumance, Chimera is a stunningly ambitious poetry volume by the award-winning Greek poet Phoebe Giannisi
In her third collection in English, Phoebe Giannisi lays out her vision for a chimeric poetics that blends field recordings, state archives, and ancient texts. The center of Chimera engages with a three-year field research project on the goat-herding practices of the Vlachs, a nomadic people of Northern Greece and the Southern Balkans, who speak their own language. In these poems, day-to-day activities such as shearing and kidding mix with snippets of conversations, oral tradition, and songlocating a larger story in this ancient marriage between humans and animals. As Giannisi writes, the ancient Greek word for tragedy is a compound of two words: goat and song. Through her poetry and fieldwork, this mytho-historical connection between metamorphosis and utterance takes form in what the Greek newspaper Kathimerini calls a bold achievement....a studio wherein poems and other texts, other voices, become exhibited.
