Sleeping under the Juniper Tree (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

¿Pauline Stainer is a poet 'working at the margins of the sacred', conveying sensations 'with an economy of means that is breath-taking...her poems are not merely artefacts, they have an organic life of their own' (John Burnside). As in all her books, the luminous poems of her ninth collection Sleeping under the Juniper Tree are minimal but highly charged - with presences and hauntings, sensing the spirit incarnate in every part of the living world.
