DescriptionRedgate is the story of how community slowly accretes out of everyday necessities, always gruelling, sometimes cruel. When the labour is hard, and making can also be an un-making. Wood's poems bear witness to the contiguity of grief and green growing things. The red of knuckles and beets. Hard-won victories and soft-spoken celebrations. Wood is so alive to where words begin and where they can lead. A deep ecological and historical awareness, and tenderness for his people/s, his land/s - entities that never loom, instead quicken like heartbeats in the presence of something dear. |
