Description
Evokes and summons up the atrocities we human beings perpetrate on one another and affirms our deepest human capacities for cooperation and peace. Through an experimental dramatic performance style, Frederick Glaysher confronts the philosophical decline that has made dehumanisation and violence all the more possible, weaving together poetry from two books, Into the Ruins and The Bower of Nil. Over the long arch of global civilisation, he reaffirms the struggle toward developing international institutions, like the United Nations, and a wider understanding of the depths of human consciousness. ‘A doorway into the future’.
