| وصف الكتاب | Pascale Petits Tiger Girl marks a shift from the Amazonian rainforests of her previous work to explore her grandmothers Indian heritage and the fauna and flora of subcontinental jungles. Tiger girl is the grandmother, with her tales of wild tigers, but shes also the endangered predators Petit encountered in Central India. In exuberant and tender ecopoems, the saving grace of love in an otherwise bleak childhood is celebrated through spellbinding visions of nature, alongside haunting images of poaching and species extinction. Tiger Girl is Pascale Petits eighth collection, and her second from Bloodaxe, following Mama Amazonica, winner of the Royal Society of Literatures Ondaatje Prize 2018 the first time a poetry book won this prize for a work of fiction, non-fiction or poetry best evoking the spirit of a place. It is shortlisted for the 2020 Forward Prize for Best Collection. Four of her earlier collections were shortlisted for the T.S. Eliot Prize. |
