Repointing the Bricks

Beschreibung

Repointing the Bricks inhabits and is inhabited. Examining the lasting impression that birthplace can have on those who eventually find refuge elsewhere, Jacqueline Bourque writes from multiple locations - both geographical and bodily - in pursuit of identity. Confident that home is often experienced as addition and subtraction of the self, the poet "sheds new homes regularly" with the knowledge that instability can lead to a reconsideration of how a person is defined. Repointing the Bricks is a remarkable, reorienting debut.
