Longlisted for the 2020 Toronto Book Awards
Mobile is an uncivil feminist reboot of Dennis Lee's
Civil Elegies and Other Poems
; an urban lament about female citizenship and settler culpability; an homage to working and walking women in a love/hate relationship with Toronto, its rivers and creeks, its sidewalks and parks, its history, misogyny and violence. How do we, in Lee's words, see the "lives we had not lived" that "invisibly stain" the city? What are the sexual politics of occupying space in a city, in a workspace, in history? How can we name our vulnerabilities and our disasters and still find strength?
Written in a slippery mix of lyric and experimental styles,
Mobile
is MacDonald's grouchiest book yet.
