With unsettling beauty and a quiet magic, award-winning poet Souvankham Thammavongsa''s Cluster will awe and amaze.
Acclaimed poet Souvankham Thammavongsa returns with her fourth collection, a book about meaning. Meaning can sometimes blow up, crack something we had not seen, or darken what had been seen so clear to us. Meaning can happen with so little and go on to take so much from us. Meaning can sometimes take a long time to arrive, years even, if ever. And it''s possible meaning does not mean, and that in itself, could be meaningful. Whatever happens to meaning, it is always there. It means even when you don''t want it. Every poem in this book looks at meaning and the ways in which it arrives, if at all.
