Song in Tammuz

In conversation with the Biblical book of Ruth, Song in Tammuz is a contemporary exploration of desire, displacement, migration, and loss: both the book’s speaker and Ruth are women seeking to be known, seeking the intimate, the holy and the whole.

“I have three names, four tongues, a place

behind my heart where I carry

my earliest dead.”
