A wandering meditation on motherhood, language, and art and a parallactic and slow amble through private rooms and interiors. The result is a woman ricocheting off the bounds of a marriage, memory, and herself. The latest book by Gillian Sze, author of the Pat Lowther Memorial Award-winning book Quiet Night Think. This prosimetrical work is a meditation on motherhood, language, and art. The central speaker witnesses the earliest utterances of her child and launches into a poetic inquiry of words themselves, asking, How to measure one's mouth by its words? The speaker seeks an answer amidst the language that surrounds her - words misspoken, mispronounced, remembered, unwritten - and, in doing so, struggles with signification and significance.
