Description

David Harsent's new collection "Skin" is a visionary exploration of the human experience. Ten sequences weave together like a planetary system, each one a touchstone that reappears in different forms to bring depth and intensity to poems that confront raw emotions. Harsent's characters carry narratives that charge the whole with an erotic energy, while his staging is stark and minimal, always attentive to what lies beneath the surface. This collection is a powerful exploration of the complexities of human experience, one that will resonate with readers who appreciate poetry that challenges and rewards. With its unique blend of imagery, language, and emotional intensity, "Skin" is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in contemporary poetry.
