This large, flowing collection is built like a single long poem with the sea as its organising principle, everything shifting yet lasting. It mourns the sudden death of a father and of friends, looks at what is happening in the world around, and turns to nature and to love, moving freely from everyday trivia to the deepest questions of life and death and what can be known about them.
