Gwyneth Lewis
Nightshade Mother : A Disentangling Hardback Book
“Refund was approved and back in my account the same day.” - Deliver+ customer
A striking memoir that travels through a traumatic childhood with an abusive mother. In this extraordinary memoir, Gwyneth Lewis, the inaugural National Poet of Wales, recounts her toxic upbringing at the hands of her controlling, coercive mother. It is a book that Gwyneth has been preparing to write all her life, in diaries that shes kept since childhood. In these journals, she interrogates the emotionally abusive mother/daughter relationship, in great pain but with determination to find a way through. The result is a book that Gwyneth cowrites with her younger self, an unexpected and lifesaving dialogue through time. Metaphors of haunting intensity help her confront what happened to her quotations from art and literature help to guide and steady her. Nightshade Mother is a book about the power of art and language and, ultimately, about homecoming after a lifetime of exile from herself. It is a profoundly moving and beautiful work questing, forgiving, and loving in its approach.
