Edited by Hanan Issa, Durre Shahwar and OEzgur Uyanik. "I felt the
city in my muscles, my saliva. I wanted to be changed. I wanted to
be in love." A young woman weaves her experience of abuse into the
folklore of her ancestors. A student addresses his OCD by writing
letters. A Paralympic medallist reflects upon his journey into a
challenging new lifestyle. From language politics to
neurodivergence, cultural heritage to sexual identity, from
immigration to race, these are insights shared with great care,
sincerity, and often humour. Featuring an unbound range of writers;
united by their connection to Wales, but reaching freely across
continents. This collection is an open invitation. It is a bringing
together of previously untold perspectives: creative essays with no
hard lines or prescriptive margins. No normative spotlights, only
an open space to speak, and be heard. These are stories told on
their own terms.
MY BODY CAN HOUSE TWO HEARTS skips across the fragile boundaries of
history, culture, relationships, and language. It explores the
transitory balance of belonging by tying threads between different
places and ideas not often compared. Traverse the poet's perception
of her Welsh and Iraqi heritage, her positioning as a woman of
colour, and the nuances of feminist action. My Body Can House Two
Hearts is a celebration of women's redemptive interdependency and
the rejection of patriarchal power.
