Fathom, Paperback by Lewis, Jenny, ISBN 1903039819, ISBN-13 9781903039816, Brand New, Free shipping in the US This collection of poetry touches on themes of family, childhood, memory, and loss. The title poem of the collection adopts the ocean as a metaphor for the realm of the collective unconscious where creativity lives, memories are stored, poetry is created, and where the dead struggle to visit. Poems such as &;Survivors,&; &;Mother,&; and &;Boarder&; cover the experience of being orphaned, while others address artistic obsession and objectification, asceticism and religious ecstasy, and the importance of grandmothers.
