Jenny Bornholdt Livres

The collection captures the poet's intimate experiences during a Mediterranean summer, intertwined with reflections on family and loss. It opens with poignant poems from the previous summer, marked by the emotional weight of her father's impending death. Through vivid imagery and personal narrative, the work explores themes of grief, memory, and the fleeting nature of time, offering a profound glimpse into the interplay of life and art during a transformative period.

In Lost and Somewhere Else, Jenny Bornholdt finds many places to stand: at home, in memories of places and people, and in the Ernst Plischke-designed Henderson House in Alexandra, Central Otago in which she lived while writing these poems. This graceful, witty, and unsettling book is Bornholdt at her very best: her language at once bold and subtle, and even her smallest insights profound.

This collection features a selection of poems, showcasing a blend of previously published works from various journals and anthologies. The poems explore diverse themes and emotions, reflecting the author's unique voice and perspective. Each piece invites readers to engage with the intricacies of language and the depth of human experience, making it a rich addition to contemporary poetry.

A sparkling new collection from one of New Zealand's most popular and widely read poets. Her first collection in five years, These Days will be snapped up by Bornholdt's fans and delight the critics.
