Cochrane Geoff | Akateeminen Kirjakauppa

Featuring a sequence of poems on the life of eccentric French composer Erik Satie, this collection confidently builds on the poet's earlier efforts. Still present, however, are the lush and unsettling lyrics for which Cochrane is best known as well as spare and precise language that fixes on a melancholy mood and doggedly stays with it through complex shifts of thought and imagery.
