Description
This collection of poems explores the daily struggle to find love and illumination in a world that often feels harsh and unforgiving. Through its powerful use of repetition and hesitation, the author reveals the unseen connections that tie us to each other and to the earth.
The book is set against the backdrop of a small sawmill community in the southern Cape, where the domestic and economic realities are starkly evident. Yet it is precisely this juxtaposition of opposing forces that gives the poems their strength, as they weave together the threads of human experience with the natural world.
