Description
Joachim Sartorius' eclectic and esoteric verse in "Ice Memory" draws on his travels to create a collection of poignant poems that speak to a global community. From observations of everyday life in Lagos to the sombre atmosphere of a North African crematorium, these poems reveal how cultural divides can be bridged. The poems in this selection range widely in topic, from the mundane to the profound, and are united by their ability to capture the complexities of human experience. With its global themes and nuanced exploration of the human condition, "Ice Memory" is a thought-provoking collection that will appeal to readers interested in poetry. With 180 pages of verse, this paperback edition provides an intimate and accessible introduction to Sartorius' unique voice and perspective.
