Summary

Via encounters with the troubadour poet Guillaume of Poitiers, Holderlin and the goldsmith Jivan Astfalck, Farrell offers 'new solutions / new songs,' whilst 'provoking new lines of thought.' This work might make us feel 'hardly more than poets and not who we really are' but who cares when 'tongue play makes sense like this'? - Scott Thurston

The Zechstein Sea Summary

The Zechstein Sea by Patricia Farrell

Patricia Farrell's latest collection engages in an extended thought experiment to test the philosophical veracity of language. Needless to say, language is found wanting, yet in these extraordinary enquiries something desirable is recovered. (Scott Thurston)
