Check out this interview at The Adroit Journal between Ali Shapiro and Gala Mukomolova about Mukomolova's new chapbook One Above One Below: Positions & Lamentations
(YesYes Books, 2018).

Gala Mukomolova: "...to name something is by no means to claim it or insure that it belongs to you. In fact, I’ve found that every time I named something, a poem, a relationship, I was already letting it go. Maybe that’s my bad luck but maybe it’s a dynamic understanding of love and attachment. Anything alive can leave, it’s what’s dead that stays with you forever."
