Trailer of Zero Summer
By Simon van Schalkwyk
Simon van Schalkwyk’s Zero Summer immerses the reader in a stark poetic landscape of alienation, extinction and the spectre of an ending era. Yet, despite these looming catastrophes, the collection is both daring and deeply human, offering a startling vision of contemporary life and its fragile, persistent beauty. A work of formidable scope and originality, Zero Summer stands as a vital contribution to poetry’s ongoing dialogue with the world it seeks to illuminate.
