About this title

Synopsis

Autumn Days is the fifth poetry collection from Emma Steel, and it may be her most richly atmospheric yet. Rooted in the textures and moods of the turning year, bonfires and harvests, ghosts and graveyard stillness, the slow burn of memory, Steel moves through her signature blend of the lyrical and the unsettling with the confidence of a writer fully in command of her craft. From the Gothic menace of "Gothic Dinner" and the spell-casting imagery of "Bonfire" to the wry self-awareness of "A Little Bit of History Repeating," the collection pulses with a sense of the world thinning at its edges, where the living and the spectral brush shoulders.

Yet for all its darker currents, Autumn Days is equally a collection about resilience, memory, and the stubborn persistence of beauty. Steel finds grace in the ordinary, neighbors, cashmere and cranberries, the welcome of a familiar home, and sets it alongside her keener, more searching poems about freedom, loss, and the passage of time. Readers who have followed Steel's journey from Journey to Tranquility through to this fifth volume will find her voice deepened and enriched; those arriving here for the first time will find an ideal entry point into one of the most distinctive poetic sensibilities writing today.
