Island Weather

Author: Chelsea Tadeyeske

Illustrator: Anna Tesařová

Publisher: pitymilk press (2023)

Exactly one year ago to the day, Island Weather materialized on a tiny island in the North Atlantic. Tadeyeske’s observations are acute while foggy, a memory that both retreats and stands too close. This book features 26 poems over 26 days illustrated by Czech artist Ana Tesařová. Poems about longing, seeking familiarity in rock, ocean, viscera–naming the body while having a mind.
