Bøker av Joan Pope

These poems share the knowledge of sex and death. They are influenced by eroticism and religious ecstasy. Are human beings merely animals, doomed to self-annihilation, or are we the bridge to something greater? Are human beings a middle ground between heaven and earth? What is the sacred? Can sex be sacred? Why do we die? Do we have divine potential? What is the purpose of religion? What do our words have to do with it all?
