One of the most extraordinary authors of his generation, Jonathan Wood is in essence a great poet - even his prose narratives are long poems, the epic expression of solipsism, despair and the absolute. In Sunrise Days, Wood's concise and complex expressionist poetry reaches an unusual visionary level.
In his brief, tense verses, Wood structures a whole symbolic universe of immense wealth, something that could shape a new Gospel but actually provides elements for a new world, a forest of symbols that shines iridescently with the lights of the sun, the old god of so many religions. To create the appropriate reverberation for this work, we use as an introduction an excerpt from Christiaan Huygens's Cosmotheoros, a rather unique scientific treatise.
