ANGELA COSTI
The Heart of the Advocate
Angela Costi’s new collection The Heart of the Advocate is fierce, compassionate, and principled. In these poems, Costi scrutinises childhood memories and legal history, revealing the rift between law and justice. These poems are alive with detail, and intimate, but also alert to intersecting kinds of violence: sexist, racist, class-based, legalistic and bureaucratic. This is an exemplar of poetic advocacy.
