Description

Firebird explores the complex interplay between destruction and rebirth, both literal and spiritual. Em Strang's poems invite readers to consider the coexistence of opposing forces, such as grief and joy, death and transformation.

The collection engages with visual art by American painter Meinrad Craighead and Italian Baroque painter Caravaggio, drawing inspiration from their works on themes of fire and spirituality. These poems offer a unitive perspective, where the source of all creation is seen as a presence that sustains us in all things.

Strang's poetry displays depth and nuance, combining contemporary issues with an interrogation of the spiritual realm. Each poem is like a small flame lit within the reader, inviting reflection on radical love and courage in the face of ongoing change.
