“Love is born into every human being; it calls back the halves of our original nature together; it tries to make one out of two and heal the wound of human nature.” – Plato, The Symposium
Cosmocartography is a poetry collection about proving yourself wrong, of stepping out of silence, of mapping your life out like a constellation to try and make sense of it. It details the ways in which we can encounter love, through family, friends, sex, ideas and the natural world, as means of resistance against abuse, grief, challenge and isolation.
Dive into this anticipated debut from multi award-winning Irish poet Ciarán Hodgers and explore how we celebrate, survive, belong and leave.
