A tribute to a special love, both naïve and poignant, Andrelle Gusain's collection takes shape under the roof of a family that learns to live and learns to live with the unspoken. From the bedroom to the window, Gobi restores the importance of everyday details, transforming the house into a place where shadows speak and flies move in droplets. Like a desert, immense and arid, time stretches across the pages in a hypnotic slowness.
Could it be a cat that sneaks into the corner of the poem? In minimalist strokes, Gobi's poetry unfolds in the unexpected angle of a silent, withdrawn contemplation. In secret, the narration allies itself to what moves in the night, to what licks the wounds in the domestic camera.
