Heavy Waters

Author: Ed Luker

Publisher: The 87 Press (2019)

Heavy Waters and is a mixture of poetic and prosaic workings on the sea, borders, and border violence.

This edition comes with a foreword from Verity Spott, in which she writes that the book is: "[a] collection of poetry that has resolved to speak of the terrifying crossings; the depth weighed up, the air weighed down—human lives pushed and pulled, fleeing and returning in the crisis who longs for our silence, in lyric refusal."
