Description

Sarah Broom's poetry profoundly engages the landscape of her native NewZealand. Experienced as both nurturing and menacing, tender andindifferent, it is the context within which other terrains areexplored: heightened states of awareness, the physical extremes ofillness, the drifts and tides of close relationships, the complexitiesof motherhood. Intensely conscious of death, her poetry is fiercelyattached to life and love.
It's hard to believe that such amature and fully-fledged collection is also the author's first. A bookfor our times; specifically a woman's, and more specifically, amother's book, it is 'about time that wears / as ragged as storm-blownwings'. Poems of deep poignancy and unflinching tenderness arepresented against a backdrop of encroaching tidescape in which a fiercebeauty burns all the more brightly, the more it is threatened. - Medbh McGuckian
