Description

Sailing the Forest Selected Poems by Robin Robertson is a haunting and visionary collection of poetry that explores the darker corners of life. With precision and dreamlike illuminations, Robertson crafts poems that are both beautiful and brutal, revealing the intangible world in razor-sharp language. These poems are drawn from five extraordinary collections, each capturing a unique moment in time. From the sensual to the surreal, Robertson's work is reminiscent of early Heaney or Hughes, yet uniquely his own. This selection showcases the poet at the height of his talents, weaving together themes of nature, human experience, and the unknown. With its sparse yet ample language, Sailing the Forest is a powerful exploration of the world around us, one that will leave readers with a lasting impression.
