Siarad: Poetry & Prose
Caroline Reid
Siarad is
a Welsh word, meaning to talk, to speak. In this collection of spoken word,
prose poetry and micro-fiction, Reid speaks to the memories and emotions that
move us through decades, continents and cultures. The collection pulses with
images of stars and stray dogs, highways with no horizon and mothers with
fading memories. Reid's background as a performer and playwright shines in this
collection of works that are as bold as they are tender, begging to be shouted,
spoken, whispered many times over.
'Psychedelic. Startling. Alive. This book takes you to places you
never imagined you'd go, and some places you've already been, but thought you
were alone when you were there. Caroline Reid is a fellow traveller in a
chaotic world. She tells a woman's story, but it is the story of us all.' - Donna Ward, She I Dare Not Name: A Spinster's Meditations on
Life.
'Caroline Reid's writing illuminates the mundane and the ordinary
as spectacular and powerful.' - Rosslyn Prosser, University of Adelaide
