AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Resonant and delicate, Fresh News from the Arctic offers a finely wrought sensibility which elevates the subtle topography of life’s quiet events.
'This is a collection that investigates the human experience, parting the veil of the mundane to reveal passion, beauty, myth and mystery.
'At once atmospheric, with a surreal blend of emotion and memory, Fresh News from the Arctic is a fluid and ever-shifting landscape of possibilities. These poems are restless and inquisitive. They echo a desire to forge a voice that is as curious as it is distinctive.' (Publication summary)
