- Book Synopsis
- The poems in Cosmonaut work together to tell a story. As our poetic narrator embarks on her literal and figurative journey, the cosmonaut and space itself become flexible metaphors, used to explore the narrator's place in and perceptions of her world. Shielded and distanced from the world by the glass of the cosmonaut's helmet, the narrator's journey is ultimately internal, played out against a backdrop of the accidental details of life - from Star Wars bandaids to conversations about trauma theory, from climate change to Scotch whiskies.
