Sailor's Home

Sailor's Home

Lian Yang
0/5 ( ratings)
Sailor's Home is a miscellany of poems by six poets who came together for a private festival in London in October 2005. The poets are Arjen Duinker , W.N. Herbert , Uwe Kolbe , Peter Laugesen , Karine Martel and Yang Lian , whose idea the festival was. Each poet takes the phrase "Sailor's Home" and builds a work from it in his or her own language. The festival, featuring the six poets and invited guest, and the book as a record of the event, demonstrate how the poets interact acroos languages and cultures. All the poems are presented in their original languages and in English translation. While the festival was a one-off event, the poems remain, and the book stands testimony to the creative impulse amongst friends whose poetry can cross borders. A fascinating document.
