Gathering Grandmothers' Bones
No Customer Reviews
How do we form authentic identities in a world valuing white skin and white features? How do we connect to our ancestors and reclaim our severed cultures? How do we heal from toxic and racist relationships? The poems in this powerful collection grapple with these questions by examining rejection, loneliness, empowerment and acceptance. It's a poetic journey exploring an absent father, an emotionally distant mother, and the complicated currents of intrafamily racism. Within these words, Karo Ska finds herself and hopes you, the reader will too. By sharing her vulnerabilities, she wants you to reflection your own story and how you came to be. Who are we in this forest of life? How are we rooted and tangled together? To know yourself is a gift, a gift we are often too scared to claim. This book is a gift to the poet and to you, reader.
