Not This Tender

By Sarah Uheida

Sarah Uheida's poetry collection Not This Tender is a profound exploration of memory, navigating the landscape of the war-torn North Africa she was forced to flee as a child. It is a mythical yet deeply personal examination of longing and belonging, estrangement, loss and the influence of family and language, presented through immersive portraits and the lens of a fractured landscape. Here, poetry is wielded as both refuge and rupture in an excavation of the past - not to preserve it, but to make sense of the future. Through its vivid, evocative imagery, the collection offers a powerful journey through the restless search for home, and the fragile yet unrelenting hope of return.
