Produktinformationen "The Inside of a Stone"
Conceived while collaborating with a Dutch artist on a project in Death Valley, California, Charlotte Van den Broeck's The Inside of a Stone explores desert landscapes and womanhood - and the emotional resonance between the two - while reconceptualising their metaphorical relationship. With close observation and striking images she engages with the arid, eroded landscape. In other poems she considers sexual violence while watching a pair of mating turtles, imagines an alternative emotional life for Ilsebill, the fisherman's wife from the Grimm fairytale, and explores medieval poet Hildegard of Bingen's magical healing.After first making her mark as a compelling performer, Belgian poet Charlotte Van den Broeck was acclaimed as one of Europe's most innovative and original new voices in poetry. Her first two collections, Chameleon and Nachtroer, were published together in David Colmer's English translation by Bloodaxe in 2020. The Inside of a Stone marks a departure from the themes of those earlier books, which often return to childhood and youth in urban and European landscapes.
