The School On The Coast Road – Fiona Sampson

Description

Fiona Sampson is a leading European poet, whose work has been translated into 36 languages and received many national and international awards. Known for her unique brand of metaphysical eco-poetry, she draws together philosophy, acutely-inhabited insights into the changing natural world, myth, and religion in verse whose forms and ideas are lightly handled but deeply resonant. From the early syllabic sonnets to her latest work with its metrical speech rhythms, this poetry is often formally ahead of its time but consistently beautiful — and fiercely intelligent.
