Still Here

<p><em>Still Here</em> by Elin ap Hywel translated by Laura Fisk is a richly layered collection that traverses memory myth and womanhood with lyrical precision and political depth. Drawing from Welsh poetic tradition and feminist poetics these poems move between domestic interiors historical echoes and folkloric landscapes often blurring the line between the living and the spectral. Fisk's translation captures the tonal shifts of ap Hywel's voice wry intimate elegiac rendering its cadences and imagery with clarity and care. What emerges is a work that honours language as both inheritance and resistance attentive to the textures of loss survival and quiet transformation. </p>
