Description

Mother Line by Ankita Saxena This debut poetry collection charts the complexities of female lineage, exploring themes of identity, rage, compassion and endurance. Drawing on the author's British Asian heritage and experiences growing up in a violent world, Saxena weaves together personal and political perspectives in a range of poetic forms. Through her work, Saxena reflects on the ways in which women are shaped by their relationships with others, and how these connections can both empower and constrain us. With subtlety and nuance, she examines the intersections of family, culture and identity, creating a rich and considered collection that spans continents and oceans. A powerful exploration of what it means to be a girl or woman in the world, Mother Line is a thought-provoking and deeply personal work that will resonate with readers seeking poetry that speaks to the complexities of modern life.
