Sirenland - A new poetry collection by Jennifer Barone, published by Feather Press, featuring original, 24 color illustrations and photographs by the author.
A reclamation of personal lineage - Sirenland is a mythic conversation across time with the poet's ancestors from the Bay of Naples, Italy. Ancestral spirits rise from sea caves and memory - as the poet reimagines her grandparents as sirens, singing stories long submerged.
In this collection, the sirens are not feared monsters but radiant guardians of land, sea, and the Napoletani people-mystic mothers and keepers of thresholds. The ache of ancestral loss and immigration threads through grottos and sea caves of oracular whisper, as Vesuvio stirs with ancestral fire and the sea becomes a liminal realm of longing, alchemy, and rebirth.
Though the sirens' voices have been silenced over centuries, these poems listen deeply, inviting their songs to be heard by all who are ready to receive them.
