The poems range widely: odes to sandpaper, hinges and an iron door; ekphrases on paintings from the now closed National Gallery in Oslo; and a personal sequence that includes a poem for the late Scottish poet Tom Leonard. The motifs are tightly woven, so that a political painting can turn into a portrait of the poet's grandmother praying in despair.
