These poems probe the definition of Motherland. Shara McCallum
homogenizes childhood memories of her native Jamaica with a revised
understanding of danger and corruption, teasing out notions of history,
language, motherhood, rupture, memory, and identity. She weaves new
cloth of oral tradition, struggling to arrange a comfort zone within the
foreign manufactures of suburbia. Hers is the skilled music of a
master.
