“I am starting to realise that motherhood is the unoriginal and plagiarized sin.”
Greenhouse Lullabies is a collection of prose poetry, following the story of a mother and their child living and growing in their apartment. As their living space becomes more and more neglected, it turns into a garden overnight. For this mother, raising a child is more than a matter of nature versus nurture. It is a matter of life and death and everything in-between.
