In this ecofeminist and deeply personal testimonial about the island experience in the context of being a creator, the poet delves into how the island – with its blank-slate horizon, guarantor of possibilities – becomes the sine qua non environment for her (re)birth, self-affirmation and the assertion of her very deepest convictions. A letter to herself and to others, an ode to Nature and the little island of Prince Edward, this dreamlike exploration engages the public in a singular dialogue, asking the question: can we keep hope alive?
