Description

Vahni Capildeo's Venus as a Bear is a collection of poems that explore our connections to the world around us. Through tender and thoughtful investigations, Capildeo delves into the lives of animals, objects, places, and people, seeking to understand how things affect us and remain mysterious. The poems in this book respond to real-world experiences, from exploring museums to standing on the coast, and invite readers to engage with them in an open and ardent way. By dwelling on bodies and inhabiting the body, Capildeo's poetry encourages a sense of intimacy and connection with the world. This collection is a thoughtful and contemplative exploration of our relationships with the world around us, inviting readers to slow down and consider the ways in which things make themselves known.
