The poems in Goodison's new book move boldly and range widely; here are praise songs alongside laments; autobiography shares pages with the collective past. In her exquisitely lyrical evocations of Jamaican lore and tradition, Goodison has always shown another side of history. While celebrating a wide cross-section of women--from Mahalia Jackson to Sandra Bland--\u003ci\u003eMother Muse\u003c\/i\u003e focuses on two under-regarded \"mothers\" in Jamaican music: Sister Mary Ignatius, who nurtured many of Jamaica's most gifted musicians, and celebrated dancer Anita \"Margarita\" Mahfood. These important figures lead a collection of formidable scope and intelligence, one that seamlessly blends the personal and the political.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Signal Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/01\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781550655988\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 96","brand":"Lorna Goodison","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42303869190325,"sku":"9781550655988","price":14.41,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_1e6b39ec-f5f4-42be-9feb-0a834c583708.jpg?v=1658842989","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/mother-muse-9781550655988","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
