Lynda Tavakoli’s second poetry collection focuses on the need to write from a place of truth, even when it hurts. Many of these poems explore how memory can inadvertently shape thinking throughout our journeys from childhood into adulthood, and the discovery of lessons learned by the looking back. In the short series of 10 stand-alone Gaza poems, words are offered up as a means of expressing emotional reactions to war and its consequences, but also acting as a catharsis.
