'House of the Trees and Other Poems' Summary
Ethelwyn Wetherald's 'House of the Trees and Other Poems' is a collection of short poems that predominantly focuses on nature, celebrating its beauty and the changing seasons. Through her evocative imagery and lyrical language, she paints vivid pictures of landscapes, flowers, trees, and animals, exploring the interplay of light and shadow, the cycle of growth and decay, and the harmonious relationship between humanity and the natural world. While nature is the primary theme, Wetherald occasionally ventures into personal reflections and explorations of emotion, often reflecting on themes of love, loss, and the passage of time. Her work is characterized by its simple yet profound observations of the natural world, coupled with a deep understanding of human emotions and the inherent beauty found in the everyday.Book Details
