Jessica Mookherjee

Flood (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

In Flood, Jessica Mookherjee inhabits several identities in her 'bone-framed coat'. With overarching themes of migration, otherness, sexual awakening, and maternal mental illness, we encounter the aftermath of catastrophe, of loss and being lost. Here, 'time folds us into origami boats' - and the poems swell with the surging tides of youth and of becoming, of what we inherit and what we forge as our own path - and what happens when we jump into the depths and experience life in full-flow. Alive with wildlife and nightlife, mythmaking and bad romance, the everyday and the otherworldly, Flood is a prodigious debut collection from a truly distinctive and vital voice, now reissued in this new edition by Nine Arches Press.
