1 peopleA poetry collection that summons the shadows and ghostly traces left at the bottom of the postwar era as a swarm of lost words. It probes historical forgetting and the depths of the present through dense metaphor and a hard-edged voice.
It recalls voiceless presences drifting in the depths of the postwar era through poetry that feels like an apocrypha.
