Overview

""Thurhmōnath"" is a dark and uniquely sensual work: an intimate, mythopoeic account of the troubled existence of an American painter and delinquent. Written in part in archaic Old English, it is at once a confessional and a mystical Contemporary Anglo-Saxon pilgrimage record. The book carries the reader through a wilderness of desolation and revelation, a personal Wasteland where memory, myth, and survival intertwine. Anachronisms appear throughout these poems, allowing the present to be re-seen through the lens of a Medieval mind. Lunar symbolism, stark landscapes, and haunting emotional tableaux form bridges between the artist's lived experience and the ancient world he invokes. Liberally blending the Archaic and the Modern, Alex Spalding creates a profoundly emotional alternative to our current age, adopting an ancient voice to make sense of the fractured present.
