Joanna Burdzel’s collection Exorcisms: The Songs of Echo is a cycle of emancipatory spells of self-discovery in which the poet, alternating between scrying surfaces of English and Polish, weaves an escape from patriarchal traps. Burdzel, a scholar of literature and women’s history, whose research has touched upon the figure of the witch within feminist movements, attains a mythical state of release through aquatic plunge and sonic emergence.
