La poésie d'Emily Hasler explore la relation complexe entre l'humanité et le monde naturel. Son travail examine souvent les détails infimes de l'environnement naturel, en révélant des significations plus profondes. Hasler écrit avec un sens aigu de la langue et du rythme, créant des paysages poétiques évocateurs et réfléchis. Ses poèmes invitent les lecteurs à contempler la place de l'humanité dans le vaste écosystème et notre connexion avec le monde naturel.
A breath-taking collection that moves between local and distant, urban and rural, past and present. This is poetry of emotional density with a lightness of touch, structural but organic, detailed but lively, thoughtful but playful. A rare combination of exactitude and wonder leading the reader in and keeping them there.
Exploring the profound connection between nature and self-awareness, this collection of poems delves into how our environments and histories shape our identities. Each piece features unique organic forms tailored to its theme, blending precision with emotional depth. The debut work captivates with its vitality, inviting readers to reflect on their own experiences and relationships with the world around them.
Taking its name from the sections of libraries where much of Hasler's research began, Local Interest maps the friable and slippery landscapes of south Suffolk and north Essex: estuaries and water meadows, coastal defences and disused decoys, possible futures and forgotten pasts.
