In November 2021, Helen Mort's father had two life altering strokes. Dad vs. Dad is an account of the aftermath of those strokes. In this hardback multi-media pamphlet length collection, Helen Mort combines lyric poetry with visual-text pieces involving erasure poetry made from working with one of her father's favourite chess books. The effects of a stroke and stroke recovery are documented through the language of strategy and struggle.
