Description - Faithful and Virtuous Night by Louise Gluck
Shortlisted for the 2014 Forward Prize for Best Collection At last the night surrounded me; / I floated on it, perhaps in it, / or it carried me as a river carries / a boat. In Louise Glucks new collection, night takes on the dimensions of myth, becomes the setting for a sequence of journeys and explorations through time and memory, as the speaker of the poems moves backwards into childhood and forwards into the kingdom of death.
