Informationen zum Autor Helen Tookey is a freelance editor and the author of Telling the Fractures , a short story collection. Her poetry appeared in the anthology New Poetries V . Klappentext According to the 17th-century herbarium The Garden of Eden , a "missel-child" is a mysterious being found beneath a mistletoe-covered tree--a changeling, perhaps. In this first collection from a respected editor, the missel-child is a point of access to various archaeologies of identity, place, and language. The poems deploy syllabics and collage techniques as they explore elegy and myth. Each poem is a space in which language works not only to convey something verbally, but to enable it to be shown as well. Zusammenfassung The debut collection by an exciting new poet and editor.
