Publisher's Synopsis
Adding a distinctive new bi-national voice to the growing international tradition of women's life writing and poetry, this collection is in a sense a miniature memoir. We join the poet on a reflective and cathartic life journey which begins with the poem Death of a Mother', and ends some thirty years later with a celebratory poem, 'Sun Children', written for her grandchildren. The poems range in focus from the personal to the political, from issues of class and gender to racism and shadism.'
