The poems haunt, and are haunted by, the legacies of literature and history: whether inhabiting the scientific laboratory, the exploratory voyage, the layered history of landscape, or the voices of past authors, they are interested in the border-zones of understanding, in both the 'the riddle of untrodden land' and the buried history of lost empires. Formally, the poems move between traditional lyric and collage-style forms of quotation and erasure. Others take a speculative turn away from the book's historical grounding, such as in the sequence of poems titled 'Watching Science Fiction' that are scattered throughout the book.\u0026amp;nbsp;\u003ci\u003ePassage\u003c\/i\u003e\u0026amp;nbsp;traces an imaginative path through orientation and disorientation, where a god in the form of a lion and rabbits with eyes 'fantastically in bloom' surprise and enchant at every turn. It observes the world under a watchful gaze, 'Patient as an avalanche.'\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46867082805406,"sku":"ADS-9781925336436","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781925336436.jpg?v=1779429491","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781925336436","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
