Storm and Silence
STORM AND SILENCE by Keilan Colville

Storm and Silence expertly combines the narrator’s voice with the voice of landscape, weather and situation. When one speaks, another answers.

Rain falls on mountains, as tears fall on a face. Music reflects internal turmoil. Human intimacy is delicately painted:

You breathe in and out with the air 
    of the earth living and dying
    in you — the nature of our lives.


With Keilan Colville’s debut pamphlet, a young Northern-Irish poet emerges.
