Description
This Selected Poems offers a profound introduction to Lavinia Greenlaw's distinguished body of work. Spanning her entire career, from debut collection Night Photograph (1993) to her most recent publication, The Built Moment (2019), the poems explore our perceptions and experiences of life.
Through these poems, we witness a poet navigating the complexities of love, parenthood, uncertainty, endurance, reflection, and loss. Greenlaw's work is characterized by its sensuousness and ability to balance the abstract with precise observation.
This collection showcases Greenlaw's unique voice, marked by tautness, ellipticality, and an unwavering commitment to forging a style that is both curious and open to change. With discipline and skill, she navigates the human experience in all its complexity, revealing something profound from even the most broken and fragmented moments.
