“”TALK (WHY?) WITH MUTE ASH”: ANNE CARSON’S “NOX” AS THERAPEUTIC BIOGRAPHY” in Biography (Honolulu) 39.1 (2016), 64–78.

DOI: 10.1353/bio.2016.0017

Notes from Source: This essay reads Anne Carson’s Nox as a work of therapeutic biography. An analysis of Carson’s iterative translation of Catullus’s poem 101, and her visual and textual strategies of fragmentation, bring the author’s search to understand her estranged brother into complex relation with an ethos of mystery and lament.
