Inquiries
Inquiries | Michelle Porter
1 post | 1 read | 1 to read
In poems that risk the comingling of anger and elegy, poetry and documentation, humour and the dark spectre of poverty, Michelle Porter's Inquiries oscillates at its edges, and amplifies the presence of human strength as it keeps company with our enigmatic and ever-present nemeses. This is a startling debut where the line between reality and reality television blurs, where a simple trip to the grocery store unifies mother and daughter in struggle, and where an economics of iniquity proves the existence of love as equality. With wit, poise, raw emotion, and versatility, Inquiries announces the emergence of an impressive new talent.

5/5🌟What a beautiful collection wraught with raw emotion and history. Inundated with family, love, anger, home, and poverty from an Indigenous girls perspective of her Canadian upbringing with her mother. Porter's attention to detail is remarkably vivid. Capturing this life down to the smallest details. Transported me into the poems themselves. It all felt so personal. Overall these poems are fuelled by the strength of the human spirit. #poetry
