Zusammenfassung

This second collection is a plea for a broader understanding of how we communicate and embrace diversity, exploring how oppression of those considered 'other' has parallels with rising fascism.

The House of the Interpreter Zusammenfassung

The House of the Interpreter Lisa Kelly

A Poetry Book Society Summer Recommendation 2023 BBC Poetry Extra's Book of the Month August 2023 This, Lisa Kelly's second collection, responds to the repression of British Sign Language (BSL) as its occasion and inspiration. Kelly develops the subject through extended sequences which attend to mushrooms and fungi, lifeforms that develop in secret, unnoticed, unappreciated, yet whose existence enriches everyday life. What can such hidden others teach us - if we attune all our senses?

The House of the Interpreter Bewertungen

'First thing I love about Lisa Kelly's work is her incredible imagination - she tells the truth (about oralism, discrimination, injustice) but tells it in a way that's so lyrical it's instantly memorable. Which is to say: Kelly invents her own style. The second thing I love about The House of the Interpreter is that this manifesto for D/deaf culture, shimmering with music and lyric abandon, is unafraid of discovery...' - Ilya Kaminsky; 'Kelly's words are a sensory joy. We are taken through time, space and dimensions - almost quantum leaping through her observations, whilst she remains rooted to the Earth and attunes to life's vibrations and nature.' - Sophie Stone; 'In Kelly's second collection the speaker delves deeper into the nuances of Deaf culture, finding compelling connections (and networks) between the outer and inner worlds of deafness, BSL and between-ness.' - Raymond Antrobus; 'Her's is a magic that turns language into deep, moving, restless flesh.' - Jason Allen-Paisant
