The Storm House

In 2006 Tim Liardet's brother died in mysterious circumstances. The Storm House is a book-length elegy that is both grief-fugue and exploration of family psychodrama. The two parts of the book form a powerful narrative of sorrow and anger, the events recollected in the first part extended by the virtuoso sonnet-sequence of the second. From uncertainty, trauma and silence, Liardet generates 'force and gravity in the spring and leap / of energy' that is the creative life owed to the dead.
