F Letter: New Russian Feminist Poetry is a collection of contemporary poetry edited by Galina Rymbu, Eugene Ostashevsky, and Ainsley Morse. It was the first anthology of feminist poetry from Russia in any language.[1] Rymbu, in the introduction to the book, writes that F Letter is “a secret burrow, an island of freedom.”[2] The works are published in both English and Russian, with a foreword by poet Eileen Myles[3] and philosopher Amia Srinivasan.[4]
Poets in the anthology include Egana Djabbarova, Daria Serenko, Lolita Agamalov, Oksana Vasyakina, Nastya Denisova, and Ekaterina Simonova. The title of the book comes from the Russian-language journal ф письмо (F pismo), which has published LGBTQ+ and feminist poetry since 2017 and was founded by Galina Rymbu.
