Jessica Popeski's grenoside turns back time, multiple generations, transporting the reader to war-torn Sheffield, the birthplace of stainless steel, a city flattened by The Blitz and other air raids, and where ?headz were rollin down snig hill.? Written by a descendant of anti-Zionist, secular Ashkenazi Jews and World War II veterans, these poems ask loud questions about why, for decades, depression has decorated the medical notes of the author's family, as if the ink stayed wet, rubbing from one manila folder to the next. Written phonetically in Yorkshire dialect, grenoside explores the matrilineal inheritance of class-related song and oral identity, historically suppressed voices, womanness, madness, accent, dialect, and class.
