Description
In the spirit of Judith Wright and Gwen Harwood, Spore or Seed is a beautifully written and deeply moving collection of poetry that explores the transformative power of motherhood, the loss of self and the discovery of a new, expanded self. It traces themes of pregnancy, birth and childrearing against the backdrop of environmental threat, weaving in elements of ecopoetry to explore the interconnectedness of all life. What does it mean to become a parent in a time of climate crisis? How do we decide whether or not to have children in a time of constant uncertainty amplified by the pandemic years? And how does motherhood change us? These are the questions that Spore or Seed raises and with evocative and intimate verse uses all the tools of poetry to explore.
