The Braid: and Other Poems About Loss

More about the book

The Braid is a collection of poetry about loss, fidelity, and a world in flux. It speaks of the difficulties of the world, mundane and metaphysical, that burden each and every one us. Featuring the lengthy poem of the same name, itself a knotted, complex meditation on rebirth and modern mythology, The Braid is a remarkable journey through the communication breakdowns that rule our often alienated lives. This brief but sensual feast showcases the eternal life of human experiences via a keen insight into the world of tragedy. Hailing from England, William Cooke is a Poet, Essayist, and Storyteller with a profound interest in Modern and Classical tales. His highest purpose is to raise the profile of Mythological thought in our spiritually hungry world by recounting the secrets from his many adventures and misadventures.
