Frost Butterflies (2006)

Linda Vilhjalmsdottir is a poet of deep and delicate emotions, finely expressed in crafted verse. Frost Butterflies is a collection of 30 poems, in which the poet senses the tangible closeness of her loved one, despite his distance, as he climbs the glacial slopes, and the spirit of the one who waits roams restlessly across the landscape, haunted by anxieties that seem to insinuate themselves everywhere, even under her sheets. The book, with its broad sweep of melancholy, bears a clear relation to older poems of similar type.
