Produktinformationen "Notes from a Shipwreck"
Notes from a Shipwreck, the third collection of poetry by Jessica Mookherjee, is a richly detailed and illuminating voyage of dislocation and longing. By turns evocative, unsettling, and full of 'small acts of magic', Mookherjee simultaneously finds the past, present, and future in the tempestuous, lyrical tides that flow through her poems. Here, seafaring lore and shanties interweave with wreckage and survival, drawn by strong currents of history - where migration, colonialism, pandemics and climate change shape the course we are on. The sea is a territory of grief and transformation, alluring and dangerous, where safe harbours and landfall are not always certain. Mookherjee's enchanting, salt-sharp poetry encompasses the many journeys embarked on - whether seeking refuge, escape, or into exile - and consider not only the deep blue sea and its myriad mythologies, but to understand 'what makes a land and person,' - the keen human instinct to seek belonging.
