The sun is our local star; the most important object in our lives. But what really powers it? And who are the sun’s favourite painters? Is it a god, man, woman, or a dumb ball of matter?
Simon Barraclough (Poet in Residence at the Mullard Space Science Laboratory) is your guide in this tour-de-force book of poetry. Sunspots condenses fact, fiction, myth, humour and emotion into a luminous meditation on the star that gives us life. Is the sun afraid of dying? It is anything we want it to be?
