Sommario/riassunto

<P style=""MARGIN: 0in 0in 0pt"" class=MsoNormal>Where Selina Marsh's first collection, <I>Fast Talking PI</I>, boldly, insightfully, and lyrically wrestled with the realities of being an individual of Pacific descent in a primarily European world, her latest offering fiercely combats the loss of a loved one with all of the techniques of poetry and the Thai kickboxing she practices at her disposal. The compendium brims with a fluid, humming list of poems, literary shout outs, and personal elegies, as Marsh takes readers through her mother's cancer diagnosis and the long journey as her illness
