Description
Romalyn Ante's debut collection 'Antiemetic for Homesickness' is a poignant exploration of migration and belonging. Steeped in Filipino folklore, these poems navigate the complexities of assimilation and the ache of leaving one's homeland behind. Through the voices of mothers who leave and children who are left behind, Ante offers a powerful perspective on family, colonialism, heritage, and the places we call home. With dazzling formal dexterity and emotional resonance, this expansive collection builds bridges between two worlds, shedding light on the experiences of generations of migrants. A moving and thought-provoking work, 'Antiemetic for Homesickness' is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in poetry that explores the human experience of displacement and identity.
