The Earliest Witnesses

Více o knize

Exploring themes of faith, earth, and desire, the poems delve into the fluid nature of witnesses, who journey through various landscapes—both physical and emotional. Waldrep's collection reflects on the complexity of witnessing, where observers oscillate between connection and detachment, grappling with notions of blame and identity. The interplay of sight and language plays a crucial role, as desire intertwines with perception, transforming both the tangible and intangible into lyrical expression. These poems invite deep meditation on the act of seeing and its implications.
