MarsPoetica Format: Book Book

In Mars Poetica, Wyn Cooper explores the conscious and unconscious ways we comprehend both the world around us and the one inside. From subjects like fashion, film, music, and painting, to more solemn and universal themes such as desire, anxiety, and loss, Cooper shows how such disparate topics can mirror each other in ways that help us to illuminate our lives. Employing various styles, forms, and sensibilities, Cooper’s poems both celebrate and mourn, as a means of illustrating the necessity for maintaining equilibrium in an increasingly unbalanced world.
