Description
The Missing Months by Lachlan Mackinnon is a poignant collection of poems that explore the human experience during times of isolation and uncertainty. Written during lockdown, these poems reflect on the past, present, and future, often with a sense of wonder and curiosity. Mackinnon's poetry is characterized by its imaginative journeying, as he reanimates familiar objects and landscapes to create a sense of continuity and connection. With a keen eye for detail, he celebrates the beauty of everyday life, while also acknowledging the fragility of human experience. Through his unique voice and perspective, Mackinnon offers a powerful exploration of what it means to be alive, to love, and to lose. This is a book that will resonate with anyone who has ever felt the weight of solitude or the comfort of shared humanity.
