The Kitchen Sink Chronicles, Paperback/Adele Cordner

Momentan nu sunt oferte disponibile.

The Kitchen Sink Chronicles was written during the first six months of the outbreak of the Coronavirus pandemic in the UK. The poems diarise the personal journey of a mother, from the initial sense of shock, panic and fear through to acceptance and the discovery of renewed strength and hope. Adele's experience of the pandemic as a mother of four, including a vulnerable son and a daughter who she was separated from during lockdown, reflects the experience of many people during this life-changing time. She tells her story, not for sympathy, but in the hope of building resilience through her writing. Complemented by characterful line drawings by Florence Cordner, Adele's daughter, the collection sensitively explores motherhood, illness, recovery, bereavement, survival, and the solace and salve of the natural world.
