Description

Earth House by Matthew Hollis explores the intricate connections between our most intimate moments and the wider cycle of life. Spanning the landscapes and cultures of Britain and Ireland, this collection of poems delves into the transformative phases of nature, weaving together wisdoms from Anglo-Saxon verse, Norse and Celtic myth, stoicism, and classical thought. Through its evocative language and subtle rhythms, Earth House meditates on time, destruction, renewal, humanity, and our environment. The book opens with the passing of an old life and culminates in the birth of a new one, bravely navigating the seam between the present and the past. This is Matthew Hollis's long-awaited follow-up to Ground Water, a poet known for his unique voice and skillful phrasing.
