Many thanks to Open Book for sharing this excerpt from Concetta Principe‘s DISCIPLINE N.V.: “Telling the story of her PhD journey in Discipline n.v. (Palimpsest Press), she takes readers on a lyric path that blends her acclaimed poetic voice with a memoir that lays bare the shortcomings of the academic sphere—a colonized place where trauma and differences are sometimes viewed with suspicion—while celebrating the titular discipline and ingenuity that represents the best of the scholastic marathon she completed.” Check out the full excerpt here: Discipline n.v. on Open Book
