Jennifer Scappettone weaves a profound narrative exploring the intersection of poetry and resistance in a world marked by oppression. With a keen eye for language and its power to uplift, she shares how the written word can serve as a refuge and a weapon in the face of tyranny.
Through evocative prose, Scappettone delves into the concept of "motherless tongues," highlighting how fragmented identities can ignite creativity and resilience. Each chapter offers a fresh perspective, inviting readers to reflect on the role of artistic expression in challenging authoritarianism.
Her exploration is not just an academic treatise; it's a passionate call to arms for anyone who believes in the enduring strength of poetry as a means of reclaiming voices silenced by fear.
