Boom! is Carolyn Jess-Cooke''s second collection of poetry. It opens with the trope of the ''baby as a hand grenade'' lobbed into the middle of a woman''s life, scattering all, this book goes on to explore the many dilemmas of modern motherhood, taking to task the clichés of the ''working'' vs. ''non-working'' mother and deliberately unbalancing the ''work/life balance''. From free-verse riffs on essential moments of joy and blame, to artful sonnets on the physical impact of childbirth, to meditative and discursive pieces on the way that love for a child suffuses your being, this book is chock-full of the terrors and wonders of parenthood.
Carolyn Jess-Cooke was born in 1978 to a musical family in Belfast, Northern Ireland. She is an award-winning author of poems and novels for adults, as well as four non-fiction books in the areas of Shakespeare, cinema, and film sequels.
