- Summary:
- The poems in Dinah Hawken's Sea-light illuminate the forces - personal, ecological and political - that are re-forming our lives. They light upon small details in their search for peace and connection in an unsettled world. And they are always open to what the sea, in its persistent breaking and reconvening, can teach us.
