Big Song - Stephen Emmerson

Stephen Emmerson's Big Song is a book concerned with overcoming trauma, with memory, with language, with body. It is a book about not forgetting, about finding yourself in a place that you thought you had left. It is a work of remembering, in which unfolds the act of the constant writing of self into text. It is a poetics of loss, and as such Big Song itself becomes an act of resuscitation. This is a book with teeth, and one which shows the way forward.
