Falling Awake, winner of the Costa Award for Poetry, "give s] us the sensation of living alongside the natural world, of being a spectator to the changes that mark our mortality" (Dan Chiasson, The New Yorker). Falling Awake expands on the imagery of fallen soldiers from Homer's Iliad portrayed in her previous volume, Memorial--defining life as a slowly falling weight, where beings fight against their inevitable end. Oswald reimagines classical figures such as Orpheus and Tithonus alive in an English landscape together with shadows, flies, villagers, dew, crickets--all characterized in tension between the weight of death and their own willpower.FROM "VERTIGO"

A fun way to add a little light to my yard.
Style: 1 Pack - Dragon with Lantern
I hung it up on my outdoor storage shed and the grandkids love it. The color did fade from black to gray quickly, but it still looks nice. The light works almost all night and my yard is mostly partial shade so that amazing. I actually planned to paint it green anyway so I do have that advantage.

Beautiful for outside or in a window.
Style: 1 Pack - Angel with Lantern
Gift for my stepmom for Mother’s Day. She absolutely loves it, thinks it is beautiful. She won’t put it outside for fear of it fading and degrading from sunlight, so she’s putting it in her bay window.

Angel
Style: 1 Pack - Angel with Lantern
In order to get the motion light would have to turn to back side. Then you can’t see the pretty side during the day. Disappointed.
