I live in a glass coffin. It only has room for me, nobody can join me and I can't leave. (The Glass Coffin) Frequently rooted in mythology, the poems in this volume borrow figures and images in an attempt to make sense of contemporary experience. They explore themes like love, grief, mental health, and coping with chronic illness. Experimenting with form and tradition, they investigate the depths of emotion and trauma. Little glass coffins in themselves, the poems encapsulate and showcase aspects of the human experience. Enveloped in hues of blue and green, this debut anthology promises to captivate and inspire.
