OverviewThe sequence of poems in Slipstream registers a parent's shifting interiority during a young adult child's hospitalisation. Its interwoven forms look back through histories of mental healthcare, troubling the everyday, embodied, and institutional edges of its immense present. Through its redactive practice and miscellany of salvaged and imagined moments, Slipstream maps a late season of maternal care, creating an open, generative space for readers to inhabit. ............................................................. ""Through her mastery of form and deft handling of language, Saunders adroitly juxtaposes the austerity of the historical with the poignancy of immediate experience. Slipstream is a formidable and memorable debut."" JO GARDINER ""Evocative and moving, the reflections in Slipstream will resonate with many readers who have traversed a similar terrain of care."" LEE-ANN MONK ""Slipstream is a luminous and bracing work of witness. Its restraint is emotionally potent, its porous text worn and fragmented. Saunders is a poet of exceptional lyric gifts, with the courage to situate her speaker 'like any other of many mothers'. A stunning debut.""
