Pavilion Poetry
In her third collection, Alice Miller takes a fierce, unflinching look at the world we live in, at what we have made, and whether it is possible to change. Her latest work, "What Fire", explores how to continue as catastrophe crawls in, when the climate crisis has its grip on us all, the internet has been shut down, and the buildings are burning up. The book ponders the questions: what happens when the philosophers never arrive, and what songs are still worth singing?
The work has been longlisted for the Laurel Prize 2022, a prestigious award that recognizes exceptional literary achievements. Through her powerful and thought-provoking prose, Miller delves into the heart of the pressing issues we face as a society. She does not shy away from the harsh realities of the current state of the world, but rather confronts them head-on, challenging readers to consider their own roles and responsibilities in shaping the future.
The narrative explores the struggle to maintain hope and purpose in the face of overwhelming adversity. As the physical and technological infrastructures crumble around them, Miller's characters must grapple with the existential questions that arise when the foundations of their world are shaken to the core. The author's unflinching examination of these themes invites readers to reflect on their own resilience and the possibility of transforming the chaos into a new, more sustainable way of being.
Throughout the collection, Miller's lyrical and evocative language serves as a powerful vehicle for her messages. Her words dance across the page, evoking a range of emotions from despair to defiance, and ultimately, a glimmer of hope. Readers are drawn into the characters' experiences, forced to confront their own biases and assumptions about the world they live in.
The longlisting of "What Fire" for the Laurel Prize 2022 is a testament to the work's literary merit and its ability to resonate with a wide audience. As the climate crisis continues to escalate and the societal upheaval intensifies, Miller's collection offers a vital and timely exploration of the human condition in the face of overwhelming adversity. Through her unflinching examination of the challenges we face, she invites readers to consider their own roles in shaping a more sustainable and equitable future, and to find the courage to continue singing even in the darkest of times.
