In from darkness into light, Jane Simmons tells the story of the Book of Kells from its beginnings over a thousand years ago to the present-day. The opening poem Iona is richly descriptive - yet its dream-like quality does not gloss over the wildness of landscape and seascape. The poems are spoken by many characters, each with his own distinctive voice. In the final poem, from darkness into light, the Book of Kells itself is given a voice to tell its own story. Jane Simmons experiments with forms: alliterative verse and a riddle echo Anglo-Saxon poetry; a traditional Celtic verse form is adapted; the insistent repetitions of a villanelle convey the threat of waves of Viking raids; broken lines suggest both ancient fragments and modern experimental verse.
