Description - Inventing Joy by George Szirtes

This short collection of poems considers that necessity and the obstacles in its way: exile, distance, haunting, identity, despair, killing… the list goes on. Maybe there’s a joy in simply articulating and locating such occasions. So why not invent joy, as the poem says,
And let it thunder
Quietly, like this.
