Naming the Leper

As a work of documentary poetry, Naming the Leper demonstrates that a term like “leper”, whether a stigma attached to patients suffering from illness or a word inscribed on the caskets of the deceased, cannot define the lives of individuals or encompass the full extent of their legacies.

Ca o lucrare de poezie documentara, Denumirea leprosului demonstreaza ca un termen precum „lepros”, indiferent daca un stigmat atasat pacientilor care sufera de boala sau un cuvant inscriptionat pe lazile defunctului, nu poate defini vietile indivizilor sau cuprinde intreaga amploare de mostenirile lor.
