The Art of Longing

The Art of Longing is the seventh poetry collection by Emma Stace Darling, comes after The Swerve, Trapped in Heaven, Inappropriate Contrition, The Sin of the Siren, Jzabagodighee and her successful first collection Girl On Fire which has been widely appraised and is now being set to music as part of a new original contemporary classical performance work. This anthology of ongoing observations and musings was set both in the dream world and the reality of XXI century life, still with the recurring theme of the sea and the feeling of being 'on fire', both literally and figuratively.
