More about the book
Innovatively blending tradition and freedom, this collection features an unprecedented sequence of nearly nineteen sonnets that showcase emotional depth and fragmented imagery without strict rhyme schemes. Alongside these sonnets, the volume includes longer poems that explore themes of history and legend, such as a meditation on a prehistoric stone circle and a ship's tale. Through deceptively simple language, Bonnefoy grapples with life's profound questions, making this work both a consolidation of his earlier themes and a fresh exploration of poetic expression.
