The women in my familyreturn as birdswhen they are done being women.Grandmothers and great-grandmothers:bokmakierie, wagtails, hoopoes.(from the poem, Ornithology)In this powerful second collection, award-winning South African poet Jeannie Wallace McKeown maps the landscape of loss with unflinching honesty andlyrical grace. Set against the backdrop of the Covid-19 pandemic, these poems navigate the intimate terrain of grief following the death of her parents,transforming everyday moments-from morning tea to grocery shopping-into profound meditations on love and survival. With clear-eyed precision and without descending into sentimentality, McKeown reminds us that in our shared vulnerability lies our deepest connection to life itself.
