‘Heirloom is a determined “unforgetting” as “this arm muscling towards memory” relates, in unapologetic post-modernist style.’
– John R. Lee
Our next book of the week is Heirloom is colonial and post-colonial collection of powerful monologues, narrative poems and lyrics depicting the tales of tyranny upon four generations of women from the past. The collection leaves haunting questions surrounding how we should acknowledge stories of the past, and how they deserve be told.
