Description
Christina Thatcher's second collection, How to Carry Fire, is a poignant exploration of the power and complexity of fire. Born from her own experiences with family addiction, it delves into how flames can both destroy and cleanse.
The poems in this collection reveal how fire is internalised and disclosed through anxiety, addiction, passion, and love, while also drawing on the landscapes of America and Wales. These locations offer up experiences that are mesmerising, burning, and purifying.
This powerful work reminds us that even after the flames have died down, they can still forge us - a testament to the enduring impact of fire on our lives.
