Poetry

Authors: Meghan O'Rourke
Print type: BOOK

Description:

The incandescent poems in *Once* explore violence, loss, and recovery. Invoking both the personal and the civic self, they chart uncertain new beginnings in a shattered nation. What emerges is both a poignant meditation on a daughter's relationship with her mother and a citizen's relationship to her country.
