What Planet

Beschreibung

The poems in Miriam Gambleâ s third collection journey through scenes and landscapes at once of the world and of the mind. By turns uncanny, dark, poignant and uproarious, What Planet sets individuality of perception and inventiveness of memory against fixed certainties, probing chaos in a post-truth world. Winner of the 2020 Pigott Poetry Prize
