Forevernoon

In Forevernoon—a book of bright, bare language but epic scope—Ásta Fanney Sigurðardóttir addresses the vulnerability of the body in its spiritual entanglement with the outside world. There is a lightness and freedom in these poems whose lines leap around the page in search of connections, reminding us of things we’d forgotten to remember: that ‘the mind is a net in the ocean’, that ‘moonlight is milk for nightcats’.
