How can we love ourselves at the climacteric of our lives; of the planet? Jo Bratten''s debut poetry chapbook bubbles with anger and guilt at the failures of both spirit and body and a coming to terms with loss, for the natural passing of loved ones, and the unnatural passing of our planet''s ecosystems. These poems offer solace: you are not alone - "In the fractured dark we''re all doomscrolling/before dawn, lit up like Caravaggios." They offer the simplest kind of love: the joy that can be found within nature.
