Description
This collection of poetry explores the complex relationships between names and identity. Three poets - Jenny Mitchell, Roy McFarlane, and Zoë Brigley - examine how names are used to shape our sense of self and community.
Through their work, they consider the ways in which names can be both a source of power and a means of oppression. From the experiences of mothers and foremothers to the impact of historical events on individual lives, these poems offer a nuanced exploration of identity and its many facets.
This powerful collection invites readers to reflect on their own relationship with their name and the stories that shape our understanding of ourselves and others.
