Synopsis "The White Fire of Time (in English)"
In this exquisite new book-length sequence, Ellen Hinsey explores the boundary between poetry and metaphysics, and the intimate bonds between morality and mortality. A modern examination of the contemplative life, THE WHITE FIRE OF TIME draws on a breadth of cultural knowledge and a deep understanding of the wisdom of the body. The poems in this singular collection are visionary meditations which investigate, as Hinsey writes, 'that wild chaos where life s power endures'. The work is in three sections: 'The World', meditations on the ordinary, the daily life of the body and its place in nature and time; 'The Temple', investigations into language and the ethical life; and 'The Celestial Ladder', in which poems trace the soul's spiralling journey through desire, love, grief and endurance. Each section mirrors the structure of the whole, with poems following specific forms, serving to create a symphonic rhythm in which details, metaphors and meanings build and interweave.
