EPIPHANEIA

'They say birds always find their way back home but home is a nowhere — a memory; a never was.' Set in the immediate aftermath of 2017's Hurricane Irma, the most catastrophic storm to strike the British Virgin Islands, Richard Georges' Epiphaneia stands as a collection of rich, transcendental verse. Beyond the loss and devastation that such a natural disaster brings, Georges' ideas span beyond the physical world, asking us to consider the ways in which families and communities come together amidst such tragedy.
