AMAZON UK CUSTOMER REVIEW:
Her first collection, Vision, and Other Things We Hide From, is a metaphysical tour-de-force exploring, investigating her spirituality. This new book deep dives into a watery theme. An elemental force 'Perhaps, the tree Only wanted to feel young again. But where will The ocean go, to feel small?' This small verse from "Regaining Wonderment" encapsulates Samantha's poetry for me. The poem is a meditation about a piece of driftwood on the beach. Samantha excites the imagination, as if the ocean is a living being, which it is, that may require solitude or a feeling of oneness. Nature is used to intricately explore what it means to be human. |
