Travelling with my Daughter

by John J. Guiney Yallop

In this collection of poetry, Canadian poet John J. Guiney Yallop explores themes of travelling and parenting, both synonymous in many ways. Guiney Yallop writes about relationships, specifically the relationship of a father and daughter, and how, in relationship with his daughter, in their travels together, he came to better understand her and, perhaps, even himself. Some of the poems in this collection were written during specific moments of actual travels by car, train, ship or plane; sometimes they were written after biking or walking. Others were written from remembered moments of such travels. Whether written during actual travels or as remembered moments of travels, the poems are offered as openings into reflection and conversation about what it might mean to attend to togetherness, to connection, to disconnection, to (re)discovery, to silence, sound and stillness, and to dwell in and/or move through all of them.
