Anotácia knihy
In her debut collection, Clementine Ewokolo Burnley asks what remains after once-familiar places and people have gone. The poems criss-cross the Atlantic, beginning in the 1850s. The voices of Caribbean returnees to the west African coast mingle with those of west African recaptives, German missionaries, and kidnappers. The collection pays keen attention to the past only to illuminate what people can become to each other in the present. In the Glasgow sequence a group of university students discover the freedoms of student halls. In the Hebridean sequences old friends recognise a late-blooming love after decades apart. In other poems a woman consults her scars. Weary of searching outward, women drop anchor in themselves. A couple finds grounding in the non-human world that surrounds them. Going back in search of belonging proves futile only because connection was there all along. Poetry Book Society Recommendation.
