Railtracks
This sensual and exploratory dialogue is accompanied throughout by the evocative photography of Tereza Stehlíková, charting its own atmospheric passage by train through the forested, winter landscapes of Southern Bohemia.
Summoning potent, hidden histories and deeply personal journeys, Railtracks seeks, with a rigorous and reflective urgency, to bear witness to the pain of separations and the consolation of meetings.

@sophiepoetry With the disclaimer that I dislike the central relationship in the book, but love her understanding of the landscape/water. Similar ideas are found in the little book she wrote with John Berger, 'Railtracks' (though then there aren't any lakes, so... an unhelpful suggestion)!

Teresa Stehlíková “It is the sound of vanishing, the music as it plays itself to silence, the train as it travels away, a voice left on magnetic tape. A photograph of a ghost is sound.” Anne Michaels and John Berger —“Railtracks” https://t.co/4KnRgro0ZA
