More about the book

Engaging with themes of Modernist poetry, the work explores recent history, art, political corruption, and individual responsibility, while uniquely addressing climate change. Its strength lies in the concept of 'undersending,' which unfolds through historical vignettes, personal memories, and literary synchronicities. The poem brings the past to life, treating the deceased as active participants, which creates a dynamic tension within the speaker's identity, oscillating between curiosity and fear as they confront these spectral figures.
