Description

Book Synopsis

In poems as tautly constructed as they are trenchantly observed, Winter, Glossolalia probes the nature

of language to depict the world from which it springs. Paired with humorous, often satirical images,

this collection explores human ingenuity and creativity against the material resources of the given

world, highlighting the possibilities and the limits of artistic making. In that sense, it is both a timely

and enduring book, one that recalls Virgil?s Georgics as readily as it evokes the crisis of anthropogenic

climate change.
