Description - How to Hold a Pebble by Jaspreet Singh
How do we scale up our imagination of the human? How does one live one's life in the Anthropocene? How to Hold a Pebble -- Jaspreet Singh's second collection of poems -- locates humans in the Anthropocene, while also warning against the danger of a single story. These pages present intimate engagements with memory, place, language, migration; with enchantment, uncanniness, uneven climate change and everyday decolonisation; with entangled human-non-human relationships and deep anxieties about essential-non-essential economic activities. The poems explore strategies for survival and action by way of a playful return to the quotidian and its manifold interactions with the global and planetary.
