Eleni Stecopoulos is a writer and poet based in California, with roots in New York City and Greece. She is the author of a poetry collection, Armies of Compassion (2010), and a hybrid work of criticism and memoir, Visceral Poetics (2016), which Alphonso Lingis wrote "open[s] an important field for investigation and practice: the healing force of language, of poetry", and Petra Kuppers called "a thick rich book of Artaudian trickster moves." Dreaming in the Fault Zone: A Poetics of Healing, a collection of essays, is forthcoming from Nightboat Books in 2022.
