Overview

"Stone Flower is an exploration of personal, familial, national and political war trauma through recorded history and from living memory. It suspends the experiences of the poet, her family and the 'other' in the lead up to and during the Bosnian War of the 1990s, and unravels its decades-long painful aftermath. Through its mostly narrative poetic structures, Stone Flower's undercurrents buzz with deeper inquiries about how we honor and reconcile fragments of living memory with conventional history and propaganda. Told through a polyphony of voices and a kaleidoscopic array of perspectives, Stone Flower is a sequence of poems that explore the resilience, spirit, hope and courage of humanity in the face of great adversity." -- Abstract
