Description

*’The Republic of Motherhood’ Winner of the Forward Prize for Best Single Poem*‘I crossed the border into the Republic of Motherhoodand found it a queendom, a wild queendom.’In this bold and resonant gathering of poems, Liz Berry turns her distinctive voice to the transformative experience of new motherhood. Her poems sing the body electric, from the joy and anguish of becoming a mother, through its darkest hours to its brightest days. With honesty and unabashed beauty, they bear witness to that most tender of times – when a new life arrives, and everything changes.

An electrifying collection of poems that makes your heart sing
Other text

Alongside the tender, heart-breaking moments, there's humour and a visceral energy. These poems transport you, there's something primal in their intimacy… Berry doesn't hold anything back with this collection, its beauty lies in her willingness to embrace the unspoken, the hidden…the wisdom and insight within its pages to be passed around amongst those finding their way into their new identity
