Description
A Sleepwalk on the Severn is a poetic exploration of the night sky and its reflection in the natural world. This book-length poem is characterized by dramatic dialogue and Alice Oswald's signature sensitivity to nature.
Spanning five stages of the moon, from new moon to reborn, the poem chronicles a journey through the Severn Estuary under the changing light of the moon.
Alice Oswald's unique voice weaves together elements of meditation, reflection and observation, creating a contemplative and dreamlike atmosphere that invites the reader to slow down and appreciate the beauty of the natural world.
