| Sumario: | "Here we stand between one breath / and death asking to be light. What happens when someone we loves dies? Orchid Heart Elegies explores the fragmentation of loss. In luminous poems that echo the Duino Elegies, Zoë Landale - like an edgy, modern-day Rilke - takes the reader to a place of amazement. Enquiring into loneliness and the transformative power of a particular bioregion, Landale's poems use language infused with the consolations of music to enact transformation. Following in the tradition of thousands of years of lyrical poetry, they gently suggest that we can bear our lives, no matter the pain, by means of a sole moment's solace. Capturing the torn, jagged moments of grief and transforming them into poems of deep consolation and healing, Orchid Heart Elegies will appeal to any reader who has lost someone dear to them."-- |
