Via Settembre

<p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Lee Duggan's </span><em style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Via Settembre </em><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>is an eco-poetical song that uses a deft and incisive collage-like practice to instil a sense of multiple space-times folding-in and over one another across various landscapes and locations from North Wales to Italy to London and back again. In these sinewy and dynamic lines intensely-realised embodied encounters with the more-than-human give way to subtle social critique and moments of self-revelation. Duggan proposes poetry as ritual as lines of enquiry where a 'body inside thought' 're-imagines' whilst 'yielding the familiar / to other'. Restlessly inventive and communicatively urgent this compelling work 'cut me through the alternative route' - prepare for a wild ride.</span></p><p></p><p><span style=color: rgba(0 0 0 1)>Scott Thurston</span></p><p></p>
