Description
Cow by Susan Hawthorne is a thought-provoking collection of poems that reimagines mythology and language. Through the character of Queenie, a cow with multiple abilities, the book takes readers on a journey through the history of languages and symbolic traditions. The poems explore the creation of the universe, the galaxies, and the sky as a herd of stars, as well as the power of love poetry and lost histories. Drawing on ancient languages and philosophical ideas, this unique approach to reframing myth will surprise and encourage new perspectives on the world. With its structure inspired by the Sangam poetry tradition of South India, Cow offers a fresh and imaginative take on the relationship between language, mythology, and human experience.
