Description
From award-winning writer Erik Jensen comes a tender and involving narrative sequence of short love poems.
These poems were intended first as gifts. They are the story of falling in love . . . and realising that rejecting the gender binary is not one thing—it is everything. - Erik Jensen
Erik Jensen is an award-winning journalist, biographer, and screenwriter. I Said the Sea Was Folded marks a new phase in his work, showcasing poems that are startling in their simplicity and honesty—reminiscent of Mary Oliver, Emily Dickinson, and Seamus Heaney.
The poems chart the first three years of Jensen's relationship with his partner, a non-binary composer and musician. They are love poems, written against the complexity of understanding another person. Together, they form a fragmentary memoir of hope, disagreement, and love.
