Описание: What elevates `teaching my mother how to give birth`, is Warsan Shire`s ability to give simple, beautiful eloquence to the veiled world where sensuality lives in the dominant narrative of Islam; reclaiming the more nuanced truths of earlier times, translating to the realm of lyric the work of the likes of Nawal El Saadawi.
Born different, a boy struggles. His story draws you in. So, too, does his mother's relentless quest: from the fight for a suitable education and effective health care through the fight for his life as he enters the harrowing world of addiction. The boy's poetry--undiscovered in his lifetime--is intertwined, depicting the inner life of a person underestimated.
Facing bitter disappointments and often insurmountable obstacles, mother and son manage to cope with adversity, sometimes in opposition. Equally obvious is the bond between them, with their candid communications--laden with strife but not without humor--as evidence of that bond.
From the discovery of a drug that provided relief to the pure hell of addiction--exploited, humiliated, punished--and from homelessness and jail cells, to rehab and a wanderlust fueled by the relentless quest to belong, his young manhood is full of heartache, but marked by grit and determination and the capacity to love and forgive. The will to keep fighting.
Inspiring sensitivity for those who are different, compassion for those whose battles arise from uncontrollable circumstances rather than faults of character, this gripping story drives home the urgency for drug policy reform.

Автор: Radzieski Laurel Название: Red Mother ISBN: 1630450545 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781630450540 Издательство: Неизвестно Цена: 14670.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Poetry. Sometimes we all feel as if our relationships consume us. In RED MOTHER Laurel Radzieski weaves a love story told from the perspective of a parasite. This series of short poems explores the intimacy, desire and devotion we all experience by following the sometimes tender, often distressing relationship that emerges between a parasite and its host. Radzieski's poetry is playful, though often with sinister undertones. Far from romanticizing either role, RED MOTHER takes readers on a tour of their own innards, exposing the hooks and claws of all involved. Following the parasite's life cycle, the book blurs the line between science and poetic license to create a fantastical romp not for the squeamish. Although parasites are not known as conversationalists, Radzieski's guest has a lot to say.

2nd Place Winner of The Poetry Box Chapbook Prize, 2020
Because everybody has a mother. And everybody's going to lose her.
A collection of poems inspired by one woman's relationship with her mother, the chapbook My Mother Never Died Before and Other Poems sounds heavy, but lands light. The first half includes poems written after the mother's death. The poet focuses on the everyday, mundane details-what the funeral home visit was like, how birds felt like messages, the unexpected realities of life without one's mother. The second half pulls back the camera to include poems written before the death, which capture the ups and downs of the mother-child relationship. Wry humor and a companionable narrative style invite the reader in to one particular take on a universal story.
"My Mother Never Died Before is a joyful read, full of surprises. Marcia B. Loughran shows her versatility and variety while bringing a welcome dose of humor to this collection, which is hard to pull off in poems about death. The many familiar scenes here-shopping for caskets, cleaning out papers after a parent has died, touching their intimate objects like breath mints and combs-are all painted with such clarity and reality."
-Amy Miller, Contest Judge, 2020
"With the strength of language precise yet lyrical, odd but familiar, full of heart though refreshingly void of even a hint of the saccharine, Loughran has written a eulogy that would make any mother proud..."
-Lissa Kiernan, Founding Director of the Poetry Barn
"The mother at the center of these poems emerges as someone who was witty, adventurous and, above all, kind. I found myself longing to sit in her yellow kitchen while making home-made Christmas ornaments over a cup of tea, with milk from a bone china jug."
-Cusi Cram, Arts Professor, Tisch School of the Arts
