Inaccurate Histories
Inaccurate Histories
by Alise Versella
by Alise Versella
“At once heartrending and hilarious, Versella’s incredible collection of poetry is a searing rumination on what it is to have a dual identity. Whether as the family legacy/family failure, Italian/American, Italian/Catholic or woman/‘human’—what with it being so difficult for most men to make the connection that women are humans. And it is all that resulting inner rage, boiling just beneath the surface, that shines through in Versella’s work. Poetry that grapples with patriarchal oppression at the same time as it breezily acknowledges female complicity in it. But as Versella shrewdly observes, ‘...it was never the patriarch /Of a family to fear/It was the woman/She who stands to the side smiling/Politely/Is far more capable of preventing/The entire world from collapsing.’ Versella speaks la verità with those lines, and all the others contained within Inaccurate Histories.”
