Abstract

This work is a collection of lyric essays that is part family history, part historical investigation of Cotopaxi, a 19th-Century Jewish agricultural colony in Colorado that failed after two years. It explores personally and historically constructed Jewish identities as they reverberate through the gaps and silences in the Cotopaxi colony's past and into the present.
