Certifiable pushes collective ideas of the human condition -white/black, sane/mad, Canadian/Jamaican - into a matrix of unstereotyped experience where we manoeuvre only by dead reckoning and by the light of the word. In languages guided by the creole soundscape, Mordecai's poems explore the truths hidden beneath the ideal of love, the fullness of sisterhood, and the intimate knowledge of little and big madnesses. ABOUT THE AUTHOR Pamela Mordecai is the author of two poetry collections, DE MAN and JOURNEY POEM. As a publisher , prize-winning author , popular anthologist, mentor to other writers, and contributor to journals and anthologies, she is a vital link between the literary worlds of Canada and Jamaica.
