Présentation That Blue Trickster Time de Amy Uyematsu Format Broché
- Livre Poésie
Résumé : In revisiting her family's history during the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans, Amy Uyematsu's latest collection, That Blue Trickster Time, is a powerful affirmation of Asian Americans during a global pandemic in which anti-Asian racism is at an all-time high. But it is also a stirring salute to older women-as mothers and warriors, rebels and ancient goddesses. While addressing serious social and political issues, Uyematsu's poems are deeply rooted in a reverence for nature and spiritual growth that comes with aging.

These are ferocious poems which celebrate being an older woman of color.
