Written in a unique voice, Iona playfully toys with thematic devices in this entertaining exploration of art and artifice, absence and impermanence, truth and tale telling. Characterised by a deep love of language, its music and its magic, these poems reflect on memory, the future and other hauntings. Wittily observed, this collection is an attempt to connect the stars into tidy constellations, and to join the tiny, inchoate dots of self into something traceable and translatable.\n\nHumorous and self-aware, gentle and philosophical, Anamnesis is written in the knowledge that in telling one's life-story, one creates it.\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- Why You'll Love This Ebook --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy You'll Love This Ebook\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eShortlisted for the Edwin Morgan Poetry Award 2022\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePlayful, witty and philosophically rich, written by a poet with a deep love of language\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExplores absence, impermanence and the art of telling one's own story\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eRead another celebrated title from Polygon - an imprint of Birlinn Ltd\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003chr\u003e\n\n\u003c!-- Reviews --\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eReviews\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003e'Dazzling.
