A Kinder Sea (UQP Poetry Series)

“I run as fast as ink, but we are both dissolving: when I reach you, we become a corner of the sea.” A Kinder Sea explores the sea as sanctuary, hoard, and repository. Composed of sequences—love letters, elegies, narratives and odes—it looks outwards from the intimate to take in others’ lives and voices, remaking form and craft. Felicity Plunkett’s remarkable poems balance wrack and loss with vitality, resilience, and beauty.
