Sinopsis: "Faulty Mothering is based on my work with families but focusing on mothers in particular who are experiencing problems in attachment to their children. A backdrop to such difficulties maybe poverty, mental health problems, substance misuse, adoption, fostering, domestic violence or being poorly parented themselves. I am interested in the capacity of people to change and in the courage of children and young people who adapt and survive adversity. The poems explore those issues. The ’Song Cycles’, which make up the rest of the book, come from a call and response, using sentences sometimes written by others in novels which have resonated for me." (Elaine Randell)
