Shortlisted for the 2014 Forward Prize for Best Collection 'At last
the night surrounded me; / I floated on it, perhaps in it, / or it
carried me as a river carries / a boat'. In Louise Gluck's new
collection, night takes on the dimensions of myth, becomes the
setting for a sequence of journeys and explorations through time
and memory, as the speaker of the poems moves backwards into
childhood and forwards into 'the kingdom of death'. Gluck draws
equally on the worlds of fairy-tale, of dream and of waking life,
each poem a door into a narrative both haunting and compellingly
beautiful.
