CORVIX

POEMS OF LOVE, SEX AND DEATH

EXPANDED EDITION

AVAILABLE FOR PRE-ORDER

Love, Sex and Death… the three major forces of human existence.

They liberate us and constrain us. Corvix explores these in all their multifaceted experience through fifty-three poems embracing love, loss, obsession, isolation and regret, and the intrusion of the supernatural into everyday life. Corvix takes inspiration from the Romantic poets and then breaks the rules to create a body of work that is at once classical and contemporary.

Corvix is the definitive collection of Valentin Per Lind’s poetry, written between 1985 and 2022, complete with the original author’s notes that explore the central themes of the poems and the inspiration behind them. Adopting an experimental approach to rhyme and meter, and frequently mixing prose and poetic styles, he hopes the reader will find the poems fresh and exhilarating. Per Lind fervently believes that poetry should encompass all forms of human experience, even those we instinctively turn away from.
