SUMMARY:Algometry poetry reading and conversation with Iryna Vikyrchak
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a poetry reading and conversation with author Iryna
  Vikyrchak\, moderated by the book's translator and poet Nina Murray. This
  event is coorginized by the Embassy of Ukraine and Razom for Ukraine.\n\n
 Algometry is a lyrical portrait of the generation of Ukrainians who grew u
 p and were shaped by the common and individual painful inner and outer exp
 eriences\, to become the most resilient and brave nation. Algometry is a t
 erm of physiology and neurology\, but it is not the physical pain that is 
 the recurring motif of the book: the speaker\, a millennial woman who grew
  up in Western Ukraine in the 90s\, takes us through the three thematic co
 rridors emphasizing emotional sensitivity\, hyper-empathy\, and inner stre
 ngth.\n\nThe poems\, organized in three corridors Algometry--Anthropology-
 -Amnesia take the reader through an individual past\, common future\, and 
 a lyrical forever. The poetry is complemented with an author's essay on lo
 ve\, pain\, words\, and what unites all living beings--a key to understand
 ing of this book. Algometry--is a philosophical and lyrical reflexion on p
 ain\, suffering an empathy as a measurement of our humanness.\n\nTo attend
