Description

Scattered Light by Jeremy Hooker explores the powerful crosscurrents that constitute the "sacred" and delves deeper into his exploration of history embodied in landscape. This new collection features a range of poems, from short, evocative pieces to longer sequences, including "Saltgrass Lane" and "Hurst Castle," which reflect on his childhood terrain on the Hampshire coastline. The poems in Scattered Light are characterized by their lightness and depth, inviting the reader to contemplate the intersections of nature and memory. Through his work, Hooker offers a nuanced understanding of the ways in which landscape can be imbued with meaning and significance. With its varied forms and themes, this collection provides a unique insight into the poet's preoccupations and artistic vision.
