The Vast Extent

\'[Greenlaw] wields her erudition lightly.\' Sunday Times\'Remarkable, visionary.\' CELIA PAUL\'Indescribably brilliant.\' Daily Telegraph\'Kaleidoscopic.\' Guardian\'A rare pleasure . . . rewarding and thought-provoking.\' Irish TimesFrom the celebrated poet, novelist and memoirist, The Vast Extent is a constellation of \"exploded essays\" about light and image, seeing and the unseen. Each is a record of how thought builds and ideas emerge, aligning art, myth, strange voyages and scientific scrutiny with a poet\'s response so that they cast light upon each other.In this original and illuminating work, Lavinia Greenlaw invites us to observe our world and beyond with a new sensitivity.
