Blissful Islands

Vit Hopley is an artist and writer. Blissful Islands follows on from her first collection of prose Wednesday Afternoon (Copy Press, 2013).

`With an extreme economy of language, revealing an orientation toward quotidian wonders, Vit Hopley constructs glimpses of partial worlds. These brief visions, connected and disconnected, now here, now devastated, plunge us down below into the midst of things: a dead bird, an aging woman, a falling brick, porcelain cats on a windowsill, some daffodils and a dog's howl. A composition in immediacy bundled together out of voices, places and things.' Helene Julia Frichot
