A remarkable first collection, this book of poetry ranges from the snowy landscapes of Hans Christian Andersen fairy tales to the canal-paths of Drenthe. Delving into the dramatics of relationships—familial, romantic, and historical—these pieces demonstrate the poet’s acute sensitivity to language and artistic eye for the visual. Clear and dazzling, this compilation asks more than it answers: about landscape, memory, and the power of art.
