Landsmoder, by the Salvadoran poet, historian, and performance
artist Elena Salamanca, is a searing, and sometimes grotesque,
exploration of the intersections between nationalism, dogma,
patriarchy, and violence. Originally read aloud from the oldest
standing monument in San Salvador's centro historico, the
performance poems in Landsmoder retool the laudatory pomp of
patriotic ceremony to protest the weaponization of national myth as
a mask for erasure, cruelty, and neglect at the hands of the state.
This unflinching collection, whose title comes from a Norwegian
word that Salamanca translates as "madre de la patria" - or "mother
of the nation/homeland/fatherland"- is a work of feminist grief,
rage, and irony populated with churning wombs, bloodied flags, and
ratteboned she-wolves. Appearing now in a bilingual edition nearly
a decade after it was first performed, Landsmoder remains an urgent
subversion, loud as ever, both on and off the page.
