Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In this diverse collection, bridges appear in many guises. They span gulfs between places, times, and even ways of understanding the world. They may evoke longing for what seems lost or unattainable. Can language itself become a bridge? Always curious, Josephy and the characters who walk beside her are constantly striving to connect. The difficulties and joys of making links across cultures are interwoven with ventures into worlds beyond human experience; on bridges real and imaginary, the poet makes tentative contact with other inhabitants of Earth. These are poems where nothing can be taken for granted, but Josephy's little bridges hold out hope, celebrating the art of the just about possible. "Josephy is generous in offering at least three books' worth of beautiful poetry within this, her third full collection. This is the work of surprise: at once transportive and homely, exotic and humble, sincere and funny. Josephy writes authentically, precisely, with skill and confidence. From an introductory Anglo-Italian mosaic of poetic gems laid with deft hands, to haircuts and fish shop encounters, through to the solitude and sanctuary of the natural world, Josephy does it all with skill and compassion." - Vic Pickup "How do we move between places, languages, knowing and forgetting, past and present, ways of being, life stages? Alex Josephy gives us clues and waymarkers in a collection that celebrates both the fragility and the persistence of life. The poems in A Little Bridge are poised and surprising, often playful, at times steeped in a sense of ritual. This is a book to keep at your side." - Clare Best In this diverse collection, bridges appear in many guises. They span gulfs between places, times, and even ways of understanding the world.
