Dear Charis

By Dominika Wrozynski and Sarah Grieve

Dear Charis: is a collaborative epistolary chapbook-written by poets Sarah Grieve and Dominika Wrozynski-that explores the creative relationship between writer Charis Wilson and photographer Edward Weston, who in 1937 took a Guggenheim trip around the American West, chronicling their experiences in words and images. Grieve and Wrozynski highlight Wilson and Weston's contemporary relevance, and showcase Wilson as a writer, though she has long been sidelined by history as merely Weston's muse and lover. Poems idle through the California Coast en route to the Mojave desert all the while finding dead bodies, date milkshakes, basement archives, and the tender resurrection of a female writer who pioneered American travel writing and whose words continue to reverberate in our present moment.
