description: In this collection Sabine Wichert subtly roots her adopted town of Belfast into her own her inheritance of "The burning cities of Europe." The poems span a lifetime of family, friends, and her own girlhood formed by the turmoil of 20th Century Europe. The image of rootedness is also present in her relationship to the Irish "Some to rescue only these roots."
