Description
The Death Poems: Songs, Visions, Meditations is a collection of meditations that explore death in various forms. Gerard Beirne's work delves into the subject with a range of approaches, from celebratory to contemplative, examining themes such as the accumulation of remains and environmentally toxic ship graveyards.
Formally dazzling, Beirne's complex and textured meditations are both sobering and spiritual. The result is a collection that is sustaining, if not always easy to read. This book offers a unique perspective on mortality, one that is both thought-provoking and deeply considered.
Paperback edition, 112 pages.
