When Dancing in Odessa was published in the US in 2004, it caused quite a stir, winning the American Academy of Arts and Letters' Metcalf Award and Poetry's $15,000 Ruth Lilly Fellowship. Now this Arc edition brings Ilya Kaminsky's surreal yet truthful poetry to audiences on this side of the Atlantic. Deaf since the age of four, Kaminsky's is a musical, forceful depiction of his Russian-emigrant family, drawing out his tightly-honed domestic settings with both humour and torment.
