Bøger af Beth Brooke

The poems celebrate the Dorset landscape and how it connects us to the past and the present. Time is a key theme in Chalk Stories, the deep time of geology and archaeology, the cycle of the seasons, events from the recent past and the time that passes as a family is raised. Beth Brooke lives in Dorset. Chalk Stories is her third collection.

Transformations is an ekphrastic collection of poems all drawing inspiration from the work of the artist, Elisabeth Frink. Elisabeth Frink spent the final ten years of her life in Dorset and her work is transformative. She explored the relationship between humans and animals and the complexities of simply being human. The poems in this pamphlet are a response to Frink's explorations of these themes.
