Animate, emotive, sensory-rich and a little vicious, This Household of Earthly Nature by Cody-Rose Clevidence takes as its subject the earth as a planet, small, contaminated and alone in vast space, and the humans, other creatures and technologies swarming it with life. Formally inventive and lyrically quick, referencing Tennyson in one breath and the metaverse the next, these poems wander through spacetime with their ecologies, exploring what it could mean to be living, sensate and awake in this weird moment of historical time, a mixture half of awe and half of madness.
