About This Book

A collection of lyric poems weaves images of water, roots and bodily intimacies to probe silence, absence and memory. The pieces move between natural and domestic landscapes—rivers, orchards, night—and bodily states—birth, ageing, mutilation—to explore longing, loss and intermittent renewal. Recurrent motifs of breath, song and darkness shape a contemplative voice confronting mourning, desire and the passage of time, while dreamlike language and striking metaphors collapse interior and exterior worlds. Occasional surreal or violent images intensify themes of absence, while quieter meditations on old age and regrowth offer fragile consolation.
