Beskrivning

Longlisted for the Laurel Prize 2022What Fire is about how to continue as catastrophe crawls in, when the climate crisis has its grip on us all, the internet has been shut down, and the buildings are burning up. What happens when the philosophers never arrive? What songs are still worth singing? In her third collection, Alice Miller takes a fierce, unflinching look at the world we live in, at what we have made, and whether it is possible to change.

Recensioner i media

'You can write pessimistically but still produce great poetry. That's the message to take from Alice Miller's third collection, What Fire. The title poem is a nightmarish fantasia, with sinister overtones of "night and fog" resonating with recent European history. As with much of Miller's work, it is both chastening and brilliant.'Nicholas Reid, The New Zealand Listener
