The Seafarer, The Sea

In 'The Seafarer, the Sea: She Awes, ' Karinna Gulias embarks on a voyage exploring notions of identity, time and relationships through the elemental imagery of water, sky, wind and trees. These poems present a meditation on questions of language and the sacred, providing a powerful and elegant rethinking of what are often taken to be fixed starting premises. In this way, 'The Seafarer' causes us to look again as we see things as new before our eyes and gain a sense that what was once commonplace now shines with mystery and new potential -- Michael Gilber
