'My Mother's First Printed Book' by Nadine Aisha Jassat

Poet Nadine Aisha Jassat responds to 'The Gutenberg Bible' as part of the Neu! Treasures! commission. She discusses her writing practice, the structure that this poem takes, and how this item from the collections at the National Library of Scotland connects to her own life.
In partnership with Neu! Reekie!, the National Library of Scotland commissioned artists to respond to collection items which are displayed in the Treasures exhibition. Each artist has created a new work of poetry, prose, song or film in response to their collection item.
