    Summary: 
    "'Shadow Blight' considers the pain and isolation of pregnancy loss through the classical myth. Drawing on the stories of Niobe - whose monumental suffering at the loss of her children literally turned her to stone - and others, this collection explores the experience of being swept away by grief and silenced by the world. Skirting the tropes ('o how beautiful/the poets make our catastrophes'), MacAskill interweaves the ancient with the contemporary in a way that opens possibilities and offers a new language for those 'shut up in stillness'"--Back cover.
    Awards: 
    Winner of the Governor General's Literary Award for Poetry (English), 2022.
    Genre: 
    Canadian poetry.
