Vanishing Point opens with a surreal vision of creativity and mourning and returns to the flakes of desire, memory and dreams.
By turns witty, vulnerable and passionate, Vanishing Point traces the currents of the imagination and the erotic and builds a narrative about human making and resilience.
Taking in poetry, physics, birth and medicine, these poems intimately chart the life of the body from before conception to after death, and the skeleton of feeling and the blood of beginnings.
