About the Book

At the bottom of an abandoned well, a woman murdered and dumped there by corrupt police dreams the voices of people who have died but do not yet know it. Deep underground, she is silent witness and narrator of their earth poems — as she drifts in artesian streams towards the coast. One by one the newly dead replace each other in her imagination …

‘Salom’s imagination is large and generous. He is one of those poets able to give his readers the sense that they are witnessing his revelations unfold moment by moment … (Salom) gets his language to acquire both head and heart’ — Judith Beveridge, Island.
