by Gloria Blizzard (Author)
A diasporic collection of essays on music, memory, and motion.
In this powerful and deeply personal collection, Gloria Blizzard uses traditional narrative essays, hybrid structures, and the tools of poetry to negotiate the complexities of culture, geography, and language in an international diasporic quest.
These essays of wayfinding accompany anyone exploring issues of belonging -- to a family, a neighbourhood, a group, or a country. Here, the small is profound, the intimate universal; the questions are all relevant and the answers of our times require simultaneous multiple perspectives.
