Whatever their subject – the unwinding of lovers, childhood as the foundation of being, the metaphorical life of everyday objects and events – S.E. Venart’s poems show us a kind of courage that is quotidian. Surviving childhood, surviving failed love, finding solace in the self, and reinvigorating that self: this is the world Venart reveals to us in all its prescient detail.
