Selected Poems

Om Selected Poems

The Selected Poems of Bermudian poet Nancy Anne Miller traces the decades she has been writing about her homeland, with the use of image metaphor as her primary tool for revealing Bermuda's complexities. Her choice of this technique is to consciously break apart linear intentional thinking or the masculine sentence as Woolf referenced. For Miller, the use of image metaphor allows a poem's meaning to radiate across the entire poem as one thing is reflected through another in a circular movement, hence preventing one final climatic interpretation. She states: "The island's history cannot be written down in a straight line" - and sees this as a female-voiced way of being a poet, one that is inclusive, layered, and exploratory.
