Summary

In these poems of holding and letting go, Mapother isn't afraid to plumb the depths. Just when you think you can't breathe, she breaks the surface, with you in her gentle hands. In her own words, each line is an homage to the scars that form us.

Critic Reviews

"Kate Mapother’s Tell Me You Hear the Riot found me in a week when I needed it most, the world so drenched in devastating news, so soaked in loss and grief, I thought: How will we ever wring it out? How can we heal from this? These poems reminded me how: with mercy, “climbing like ivy over everything/ —everything”; with a sense of openness and compassion that feels downright holy to me; and with a hard-earned wisdom about where healing comes from—touch, landscape, language, a sense of the divine, and above all, love." (Maggie Smith, author of Goldenrod and Keep Moving)
