A keen observer of past and future, Anne Simpson remembers the extraordinary and offers sensuous, evocative, musical poems that honour victims of war and violence of all kinds. Light Falls Through You creates elegies to individuals and masses, with reflective insight, imaginative depth and powerful musicality. Her “Usual Devices" recounts the Trojan War in a sequence about punctuation marks, capturing epic violence through syntax. The book’s final poem blends daily elements into an icon of longing and hope. | Light Falls Through You by Anne Simpson, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
