Her poems are Caribbean songs of innocence and experience, of love and conflict. They use personal stories and historical narratives to explore social injustice and the psychological dimensions of black women's experience. Striking evocations of childhood in the hills of Jamaica give way to explorations of the perils and delights of growth and change - through sex, emigration, motherhood and age.\u003cbr\u003e Introduced by renowned critic Colin MacCabe, the book brings together new poems with poetry and reggae chants from four previous collections: \u003ci\u003eRiddym Ravings, Spring Cleaning, On the Edge of an Island\u003c\/i\u003e and \u003ci\u003eThe Arrival of Brighteye\u003c\/i\u003e. Many of the poems were included in two performances by Jean 'Binta' Breeze filmed by Pamela Robertson-Pearce at Leicester's Y Theatre available by scanning QR codes printed in the book, along with an interview with Jane Dowson. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean 'binta' Breeze\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Bloodaxe Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 06\/30\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 194\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.10w x 0.70d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781852249106","brand":"Bloodaxe Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42794572611721,"sku":"9781852249106","price":19.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0636\/9240\/6921\/files\/img_6fa4e35a-7143-44a0-bb9c-ee984c122b60.jpg?v=1721109256","url":"https:\/\/sonsanddaughtersbooks.com\/products\/third-world-girl-selected-poems-with-live-readings-dvd-with-dvd-9781852249106","provider":"Sons and Daughters Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
