The Lithium Codex

The prose poems create a vivid, haunting landscape where the past and present intertwine. Through the lens of memory, both the living and the dead interact in a world filled with echoes of childhood and the remnants of life. The imagery of birds and buildings evokes a sense of nostalgia, while the unique structure and rhythm of the poems offer a fresh perspective on themes of loss and recovery. Hardwick's mastery of the form results in a powerful and original collection that resonates deeply with readers.
