Description
'i take your voice' is one long serial poem of imagined conversations between a daughter and her mother, in a language native to neither of them. It reads like a one-woman play, the daughter enacting both roles of the miscommunication that comes with immigration, trauma, and narcissism. In text coming in from the left and the right side of the page, and sometimes meeting in the middle, 'i take your voice' is a communion of the unsaid and untranslatable, blurring the lines of a loaded mother/daughter bond, with hope that the book itself can connect a dynamic that talking every day only estranges.
