Requiem |
Through its 211 interwoven poems, this double-tiered recursive crown of sonnets takes the reader on an epic journey to the heart of mankind’s would-be nemesis – herself – and back again. Does her destiny await in the unexplored depths of the cosmos, or in a toxic wasteland of her own making? Does she have the will to shape her own future, or is she a slave to her myopic wants and impulses? Requiem takes the existential threats facing humanity – from the destruction of the environment to nuclear holocaust – as a lens through which to reflect on the fate of civilization, humanity and ultimately conscious life in the universe. Crown XI is available as free sample, for you to read or listen to. |

Requiem is like nothing else I have ever read. […] Requiem really is a stunning work of art.
A masterclass in sonnet writing […] sublime and so wonderfully considered.
A stand-out among all the poetry I’ve read. […] Thrilling, rich, and properly metered lyric sonnets, dense with imagery and sonic resonance.
Just beautiful.
Beautifully done.
Powerful, beautiful, honest, and real. So much more than I was expecting.
Recommended for students and lovers of serious poetry.
I think Requiem is awesome. There is something enviable in both claim, scope and ambition […]
