In the Lounge A Composition of Lost Jane Galstyan

About This Show

The thing is, I keep breaking my own heart to stay in America. This body is gentrified with your skinny syntax and my muscles have forgotten how to write the letter ‘dz’ in Armenian.  A Composition of Lost explores the unresolved grief an immigrant carries as they start to slowly lose an entire world to a language.
