Synopsis

For many of us, family is at the centre of our lives. But what happens when a child has autism, or a mother has dementia? How do family members come to terms with this? How does day-to-day life change?

Ruth Aylett and Beth McDonough take all this on in their poetry pamphlet Handfast: from the early signs through the hopes and disappointments to the every-day of trips, meals, birthdays. These poems do not shirk from harsh realities, but find shared spaces and connections, and even comfort and the surprise of humour.

From Handfast we learn about the heart, ‘this million-shattered glass’, about the power of rain, and that, sometimes, riddles remain unsolved.
