Reseña del libro "Call and Response: 12 (The Emma Press Picks) (en Inglés)"

Call and Response is a sequence of sonnets from the perspective of a daughter, addressed to her mother during her mother's illness. Hard-edged yet tender, the poems explore the darker side of familial bonds and the strange ways suffering can heal old wounds. April. The relief of finding you perched on your hospital bed. Lipsticked and cashmered. Defiantly undimmed. Twelve hours post-op, youve drunk them out of tea and think youd like to go now. Nurses calling you the Steve Redgrave of patients. Your healing seeded centuries ago, tough as the ash trees fighting their way through frost-bitten Polish soil, hunger for a better life incubating in clogged, stetl light. And yes, Im proud to be your daughter. Weve cared what the neighbours thought since we were in the caves. My ancestral grannies counted grapefruit spoons, possessed small dishes shaped like avocados.
