Kisuule Vanessa - A Recipe For Sorcery - Paperback

Binding: Paperback
Description: Vanessa Kisuule's second release is a poetry collection with a difference: it is a cathartic explosion an unspooling of long harboured fears and resentment and a delving into ugly and uncomfortable truths. It is a recipe for womanhood that changes with the whim of the seasons and the political climate. It is a feverish fistful of musings a comedy of errors an instruction manual a compass an overheard conversation in the ladies loo whispered secrets over a (second) bottle of wine. It is a lamentation an homage to fellow women at once a celebration of things to come and a mourning of things lost. It is a redefinition of what it is to be magical and otherwordly. It exposes the complex and contradictory impulses of the human spirit the ugly tangle of emotions we must deal with in ourselves and also as a wider society. With frankness humour and a decided fuck - you to fear Vanessa digs deeper than she ever has to find something resembling sorcery.
