Notă biografică

"Packed with powerful social commentary, pain, and love, Sumiko Saulson highlights the darkness found in every corner of our everyday world with haunting prose and metaphor." - Ronald J. Murray, Elgin Award-nominated author of Cries to Kill the Corpse Flower "In The Rat King, Sumiko Saulson sings the song of the sufferer who has transcended deep hurts through a vibrant estimation of their own beautiful humanity.

You can see their power of words in poems such as Regarding Nina Simone's Bad Reputation, reflecting on their mother's struggles with mental disabilities and being a BIPOC woman. With poems like The Rat King, they explore the literal horror of homelessness and death. Other excellent and moving poems include A Travesty in Timbuktu, I Feel Some Kind of Way, I Am Not Your Trope and Black and Queer aren't Trends which are strong poetical manifestos focusing on their self-described being "of Black, and Ashkenazi Jewish heritage, queer, and disabled." There is beauty, both rough and elegant, and brutality in the narrativ
