Nadia Arioli: Mother Fur, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Mother Fur is a triptych look at new parenthood. Confessional poetry, fictional characters, and lyric essay interweave in cosmic force, as the author learns what it means to be a mother. The first part offers tender poetry about an infant and his birth. The second part explores primal creation through the eyes of Grendel's Mother-who is deemed monster along with her offspring. The third part, an essay, forms a kind of synthesis: learning gentleness despite one's family of origin. The relationship between the three parts is poetic, not purely logical; it is up to the reader to connect what resonates in the spaces between confession, fiction, prose, and poetry. Mother Fur is not just for parents, however. It is a book for those who wish to forge their own identity through liminal experiences.
