Title: Zero gravity
First published: 1998
Description: "Gwyneth Lewis's Zero Gravity treads new territory for poetry. Its title sequence is part space documentary, part requiem, drawing on her experience of watching her American cousin, astronaut Joe Tanner, helping to repair the Hubble Space Telescope. As well as reaching out to a loved one engaged on a dangerous mission in outer space, the poem considers internal journeys, including death, that we all have to undertake. The whole collection uses fables of self to view scenes from a marriage and to describe the experience of simply seeing."--BOOK JACKET.
