Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book is an epic poem comprised of sonnets, fragments, and longer verse narratives. It begins by exploring the origins of the universe, the formation of the Earth, and the evolution of life from the first cell to humanity. Within this frame, it examines historical events including the First World War, the Russian Revolution, the women's suffrage movement, the emergence of fascism, and the threat of nuclear annihilation. The author describes the impact of these events on human civilization, and the psychological and emotional toll they take on people's lives. However, the book is not only concerned with depicting the horrors of war and the potential for human destruction. Throughout, it celebrates human resilience, love, and creativity. The author contrasts descriptions of suffering with life-affirming moments of joy, romance, and artistic triumph. This multifaceted work explores life from its painful beginnings to its uncertain future, with all the beauty, brutality, and complexity that entails.
