More about the book
In "Apostasie," John Burnside explores the shift from religious to earthly revelation and self-awareness, influenced by his Catholic upbringing. His poems invoke forgotten aspects of existence, highlighting the unseen world with vivid imagery, such as "starlight" as "rumor on the skin" and "pollen" scattered like "the timeless script of a world before the word."
