Homunculus by Luke Palmer Sarah Crossan exploring the urban shortcutsIn the sequence of poems that forms the spine of this debut collection, Luke Palmer casts 16th Century alchemist Paracelsus as an eccentric single father, giving voice to his Homunculus; a preformationist child and the secret to eternal life. By turns playful and profane, the arcane bleeds into the everyday, untethered from history a walk in the woods is an encounter with an angry god, a potty training accident becomes a metaphysical exploration.
