Desesperanto refines the themes of loss, exile, and return that have consistently informed Marilyn Hacker’s work. The title itself is a wordplay combining the name of the invented to-be-universal language Esperanto and the French ‘desespoir’, meaning despair. Desesperanto, then, is a universal language of despair-despair of the possibility of a universal language.
