Playing on the connections between solidarity, solitude, solace and consolation, "Sol" illuminates with humour and curiosity the ways we link language, loss, history and memory. At the heart of this book are two major poems. "The Sunflower", an elegy for the poet's father, is an extended meditation on death, family and religious faith. "Les Baillessats" is a relaxed, sun-filled poem for the poet's newborn son.
