Crane - Paperback

by Tessa Bolsover (Author)

Through interweaving prose and verse, Crane resurrects two figures from myth: Cardea, goddess of hinges, and Echo, the nymph transformed into reflective sound.

Moving between intimate narratives and meditations on language and desire, these poems explore thresholds of all kinds--between speech and silence, presence and absence, meaning and its dissolution. Crane is both elegy and revelation, examining how we navigate spaces of loss and transformation in a precarious world.
