The poems in Goodison's new book move boldly and range widely; here are praise songs alongside laments; autobiography shares pages with the collective past. In her exquisitely lyrical evocations of Jamaican lore and tradition, Goodison has always shown another side of history. While celebrating a wide cross-section of women-from Mahalia Jackson to Sandra Bland-\u003ci\u003eMother Muse\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on two under-regarded \"mothers\" in Jamaican music: Sister Mary Ignatius, who nurtured many of Jamaica's most gifted musicians, and celebrated dancer Anita \"Margarita\" Mahfood. These important figures lead a collection of formidable scope and intelligence, one that seamlessly blends the personal and the political.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Lorna Goodison\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Vehicule Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 04\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSeries:\u003c\/b\u003e Signal Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.32lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.51h x 5.15w x 0.32d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550655988","brand":"Vehicule Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43060547190921,"sku":"9781550655988","price":16.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_a6be6254-b9a7-4a23-b897-08f9cc140b19.jpg?v=1729575969","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/mother-muse-9781550655988","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
