A Marginal Sea by Zo Skoulding
Zoe Skoulding's first Carcanet collection is a navigation of lostness, centred on Anglesey, that discovers solidarities across times, places and species.
'Zoe Skoulding's magisterial new book A Marginal Sea offers us a pentathlon of innovative forms in which we find expressionist typography, haibun, calendrical prognostications, a poignant soliloquy by the bird-haunted Odysseus, and striking passages of sheer lyric beautyThis is a book that makes you feel, as it lengthens your wingspan, glad to be alive.' - Forrest Gander
Zoë Skoulding’s six previous collections of poems include A Marginal Sea (Carcanet, 2022), shortlisted for Wales Book of the Year, following most recently by A Revolutionary Calendar (Shearsman, 2020) and Footnotes to Water (Seren, 2019), which won the Wales Book of the Year Poetry Award. She is co-editor, with Katherine M. Hedeen, of Poetry’s Geographies: A Transatlantic Anthology of Translations (Shearsman, 2022), and her critical publications have explored poetry’s relationships with place, listening, translation and ecology.
