Kiss My Earth by Alice Willitts
The poems in Kiss My Earth illuminate the quiet, bright place of strength inside the broken and remind us how to live well. Unafraid of silences, this bold collection of long poems ventures into the future where East Anglia is under the sea and circles back to critique the turbulence of our transitional times. Alice Willitts wants us to fall in love with ourselves again even as our species falters. Precision and tenderness characterise the vitality of her language in these morally enraged, wise poems that grapple with precepts of creation under the rising gods of technology. Kiss My Earth is an urgent, philosophical collection from this Fen writer who understands intimately her own relationship with body, pain and belonging.
