Description
Book SynopsisPoems that illustrate the stories that lie buried in landscapes and in human lives.
Trade Review" If one were to make a colour palette for Small Fires, it would be a watercolour of stones and derelict wood greys, dusky blues, a smear of rainy green through a window, the creosote of town, as rage by morning dies down to " murmur / through stovepipes." " Montreal Review of Books " Small Fires is a petit and exquisite book of journeys. Throughout the collection, Drukker speaks clearly in language transparent as wind, attuned to the beauty and pain of the world and its histories. A highly recommended read." The Goose " ... a petit and exquisite book of journeys. Much more than a poetic travelogue, it is a quiet homage to places and cultures that Drukker inhabits fully and allows herself to be smitten by. Drukker speaks clearly in language transparent as wind, attuned to the beauty and pain of the world and its histories. A highly recommended read." The Goose
