Birds Soaring

Meer over het boek

This first poetry collection from talented new writer Cosmin Cucu reflects on the deeper themes of life, as many of us have been forced to do in the year of 2020, and the result is a volume of poems moving in their universality and yet still intimately personal. The reader is taken from the soaring heights of a new love affair to the depths of despair and back.Love, passion, lust and loss are grounded in images of nature and celestial bodies, setting the ephemeral and the eternal side by side.This painterly collection is a mediation on what it is to love, to hurt and to heal, set against evocative images of the cycle of nature: birth, flourishing life, decline and death, with the possibility of rebirth.In the author's words, "This is about... falling in love... awareness, determination, sorrow, peace of mind. This is about... you".
