Synopsis
A stark, lyrical collection that navigates love, loss, and mortality.
This volume gathers pointed, examined poems that blend intimate emotion with striking, image-driven scenes. The speaker confronts desire, memory, and the passing of time through sharp observations and formal clarity, creating a mood that is at once precise and searching. This edition presents Louise Bogan’s mature voice, with poems that move from personal ache to themes of fate, resilience, and the costs of longing.
- Vivid imagery and short, composed lines that sharpen mood and meaning.
- Themes of love, sorrow, memory, and the passage of years.
- Alternating tones of quiet introspection and dramatic, almost liturgical moments.
- A blend of personal reflection with broader statements about life, art, and desire.
Ideal for readers who appreciate contemplative poetry with stark emotional resonance.
