Reseña del libro "The Nurseryman (en Inglés)"

Winner of the Eyelands Award for Best Poetry Book of 2019 The Nurseryman is a verse novel told in polyphony as the collected account of a 17th Century voyage to Meta Incognita - the absolutely unknown ice-land at the top of the world. A composite of original sources and collected accounts of medieval voyages, The Nurseryman is a postmodern travel compendium that explores the hidden, magical worlds within our own. "AN EXTRAORDINARY DEBUT THAT COMBINES THE AWED WONDER OF EARLY SEAFARERS WITH A FRESHNESS AND BUOYANCY THAT IS ESSENTIALLY 21ST CENTURY. ALTERNATING BETWEEN THE LATE SIXTEENTH CENTURY 'FRAGMENTARY RECORDS OF A ROOTE GATHERER, PRACTICED OF ALCHEMICAL CRAFT & IN THE SPIRITUAL USE OF FRUIT TREES...', LYRICAL MEDITATIONS ON THE BEAUTY OF NATURE, AND NOTES ON SOME OF THE MARVELS ENCOUNTERED DURING THE VOYAGE (SUCH AS HOW FEMALE WHALES ARE SNARED BY THEIR PROTECTIVENESS TOWARDS THEIR OFFSPRING), THE NURSERYMAN TAKES US ON A STARTLINGLY ORIGINAL ODYSSEY THAT IS AT ONCE AN HOMAGE TO THE PAST AS WELL AS BEING A PRESCIENT 'FABLE FOR THE PRESENT."- JENNY LEWIS, AUTHOR OF GILGAMESH RETOLD
