Moon jellyfish live a life adrift, relying on the current to take
them where they need to go. They are the ultimate survivors and one
of the most successful organisms of animal life. So how do they
thrive in the open ocean when they can barely swim? Rooted in her
island home, Ness Owen's second collection explores what it is to
subsist with whatever the tides bring in poems that journey from
family to politics, womanhood and language. In the ebb and flow of
an ever-changing world, starlings fall from the sky, votes are
cast, a village is drowned, a petrified forest is revealed and
messages wash up in seaworn bottles on the shoreline, waiting for
answers that will not come.
