Inside the wave
Dunmore, Helen
Inside the wave / Helen Dunmore - Northumberland, GB : Bloodaxe Books , 2017 - 70 p. ; 22 cm
To be alive is to be inside the wave, always travelling until it breaks and is gone. These poems are concerned with the borderline between the living and the dead - the underworld and the human living world - and the exquisitely intense being of both. They possess a spare, eloquent lyricism as they explore the bliss and anguish of the voyage.
