Deniz Besim Publishes New Book of Poetry: The Sky that Falls
LONDON, May 7, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --
Deniz Besim's publication of The Sky that Falls introduces the world to a thoroughly refreshing collection of poetry. It totals a set of forty poems, in which each and every poem takes on a theme of its own. The book is divided into forms that include sestinas, villanelles, sonnets and pantoums. Many of the poems explore themes including science, agriculture, adoption, culture, relationships; others explore happier themes, such as love, friendship and holidays. There is also one central theme common to both the title of the book itself and its relationship with the other poems: nature.
A connection to the natural world is a critical theme throughout the book. The title itself, The Sky that Falls, is explored figuratively as well as literally. The idea of a 'falling sky' can be actualised through rain, snow or hail, but also through the idea of the world closing in on the reader and 'falling' as we know it.
