Approaching Sabbaths

By Jennifer Rahim

Drawing on a powerful sense of Trinidadian history and moving seamlessly between matters of family and matters of country, Jennifer Rahim's confessional and sensitive poems explore the threats and realities of fragmentation--of psyche's, of family, and of a nation. With a balance of personal trauma, misery, and death with the cool, reflective nature of poetry, these pieces touch on topics such as family relationships and secrets, gender, abuse, and a troubled, fragile Caribbean.
