Rooted in the geographies of the Nordic region-Oslo, the Norwegian fjords, the Baltic, the Faroe Islands-the poems chart a path through ecological disquiet, emotional estrangement, and the metaphysics of climate and weather. They're interested in the failure of traditional notions of the sublime to accommodate our contemporary moment: how climate collapse, grief, and urban fatigue both mirror and resist the old frameworks of awe. Across seasonal rotations and drifting landscapes, the collection tests what it means to endure, to observe, and to remain unsettled.
