Enveiling and surrounding poems

Once described by Andrew Sant as a 'great talent', Andrys Onsman writes from a migrant's perspective; both joyfully engaged and warily observant. His poetry, plays, essays and translations often focus on how relationships between people and ideas shape the way in which they construct their world.In this collection of poems, Andrys considers how we continually recreate our identities through our relationships with the people, places and ideas we love and value; how we weave every experience into redefining who we are as we move through the physical presence and the remembered past.
