Description
Dressing for the Afterlife is Maria Taylor's second collection of poems, exploring love, life, and adaptation to time. These poems weave together themes of motherhood, heritage, and inheritance, finding stories in girlhood's faltering dance-steps and the everyday moments that shape us.
With crisp and vivid language, Taylor conjures a world where women find their wings and take flight. Her poems shimmer with humour and brio, from the glamour of silent film-star goddesses to the quiet moments of everyday life. A collection of tender and resilient poetry, Dressing for the Afterlife is a celebration of the complexities and beauty of human experience.
