Suzanne Bottelli

Suzanne Bottelli received a 2004 GAP to defray research costs, writing time, and travel to New Jersey in order to complete a series of poems entitled Buildings That Are No Longer Here, to be included in a book-length manuscript. “These poems will address my relationship to places I remember from growing up in New Jersey. The manuscript is informed by a variety of spaces and structures that stand in my memory but no longer exist, or no longer exist as they once did. I would like to return to New Jersey for a brief time in order to research, visit, and respond to these sites.
