Description
With Feathers on Glass by Andrew Duncan A new collection of poetry that explores the intersection of art and culture. This volume is a personal mythology of grand motifs and elaborate ruins, drawing inspiration from folklore and myth. The poet reflects on the distribution of cultural art motifs to rural households, patterns copied onto glass with feathers or brushes made of marten-hair. The book begins with an inventory of concrete facts about the poet's life in Nottingham, where he grew up. One theme is the recreation of court and metropolitan art forms in a simpler manner, with radiant messages broken up by distance. This collection marks a new start after a long period of silence, offering a unique perspective on the relationship between art and everyday life. With its blend of personal reflection and cultural commentary, With Feathers on Glass is a thought-provoking exploration of the human experience.
