フロム・ティンバーランド
From Timberland is a long sequence of poems that follows figures moving through a ravaged world and the presences gathering in a "house of poetry." Touching on loss and anxiety, it traces a will to reach toward others and the future through language.
Work Information
A long sequence of poems that passes through an inexpressible darkness and heads into the predawn wilderness by the light within.
Published by Shichosha in October 2024, this poetry collection by Taichi Nakao moves among images of wind, wilderness, trees, and shadows, asking what language can carry in a wounded time. It received the poetry division prize at the 40th Shika Bungakukan Award.
Review Summaries
-
The excerpt presented with the award suggests a poetic movement that layers body, memory, and the presence of the dead while seeking to remake the world through metaphor.
