Shadows of Glass

Norwegian title: Skuggar av glas

Sigurd Helseth

To read haikus is to see. In this collection, the traditional Japanese poetic form is blended with more dystopian visions. Nature plays an independent role, but the sensual and the mystical eventually meet in ruined landscapes, war, metal and chaos. In this way, Sigurd Helseth’s poems constantly offer new surprises. In Shadows of Glass, objects and events appear before us in a renewed and vital way.
