What do you do when life seems overwhelming, the world seems alienating and physical injury has become debilitating? For artist and poet Bruce Rimell, the answer was to turn away from the world, and to seek solace in landscape, astronomy and poetry.

What do you do when life seems overwhelming, the world seems alienating and physical injury has become debilitating? For artist and poet Bruce Rimell, the answer was to turn away from the world, and to seek solace in landscape, astronomy and poetry. Written over a period of four years, 'Wanderer: Songs of Solitude, Fragility, and Change' emerged from this challenging time: the poetry addresses grief and memory, as well as slow-burn changes in the course of a human life. It mourns the passing of a once-cherished friendship, stands in sorrow before waterfalls, celebrates the passing of the seasons visible in the natural world. Framed as a journey across the heavens, the collection is interspersed with deeply personal, and idiosyncratic, hymns to various planets and stars, before returning home to Earth. 'Wanderer...' takes in diverse shifts in identity and lifelong movements through walks in moorlands and the wilds, as well as dreams, otherworldly encounters at secluded falls, and the night sky, all sprung from a somewhat hyperactive perspective. A free verse diary of some dark and difficult days punctuated with shards of light, 'Wanderer' takes the reader through a time of lost illusions, but a magical journey nonetheless. Sometimes, sorrow is as beautiful as joy: this collection seeks out exactly that kind of beauty.
Autorenporträt
Bruce Rimell is a British artist, poet musician, and independent researcher. Previous poetic works include 'Ta Sba Balamil Ta Ch'ulel', an illustrated poetic travelogue through the Maya cultural landscapes of Southern Mexico, 'The Fernal Songs', a body of queer, psychedelic and mythical song cycles, and 'Reveries, Dreams, Refractions', a poetic retrospective. His novella 'Hangman Starman', a visionary tale of idiosyncratic self-transformation from darkness to light is also available from early 2023. 'Nine Nights Awake' is his most ambitious poetic work yet: a wild, queer, epic autobiographical work. Forthcoming publications include 'Beeley Far The North', a poetic travelogue from travels in Northern Ireland, and 'Shapes of Shiny Brow', a surreal, semi-autobiographical tribute to the sixth century Welsh poet Taliesin.
