Publisher's Summary
A lyrical excavation of trauma and healing in the midst of early motherhood - the debut work of an endlessly inventive poet whose work 'fizzes with energy, physicality, and the levitating openness of song' (Rebecca Tamás)
Amy Acre’s debut collection is an unforgettable, unflinching excavation of motherhood, what it means to be a female artist, and what it means to be a poet with a deeply integrated community. This is a timeless work the like of which we haven’t seen enough of in the past, primed to last long into the future.
Critic Reviews
'Mothersong is...poignant, powerful and provocative. I love the feeling in Amy Acre's poems, this timeless vulnerability, this ripe truth, these pieces are beautiful, evocative, and everlasting.' (Salena Godden)
'Pure cinema, raw heart, and unparalleled technique.' (Joelle Taylor)
'Amy Acre’s poems are electric. They crackle and spark with wild feeling, inventiveness and deep sensuality. Mothers, daughters, lovers, all the thrilling complexity of love and grief that the body must bear; these are poems which set the page aglow and make my heart spin.' (Liz Berry)
