Our Wounds in the Clear-Cut

Norwegian title: våre sår i hogstflaten rense overgi blanke trær blomstre opp i dødsraten hvisk navnet ut her

Our wounds in the clear-cut purge surrender shining trees blossom forth in the death rate whisper the name out here

The poems in Kristin Berget’s sixth collection explore how humans live with and against nature, gather for meals, for prayer, around campfires, beside coffins when living conditions change.
