The Weight of What Remains is a powerful contemporary war poetry collection exploring the enduring echoes of conflict, memory, loss, and renewal. Written with clarity and emotional depth, these poems trace a journey through the aftermath of war, reflecting on trauma, resilience, and the quiet search for peace that follows.
Drawing on the author's lived experience and landscapes that stretch from Southern Africa to Ireland, Bert Peskens reflects on the emotional terrain left behind by war-its silences, its shadows, and the resilience required to live with what remains. The poems move between stark remembrance and moments of quiet beauty, where sea, land, and sky offer space for reflection, healing, and renewal.
Through themes of brotherhood, grief, exile, identity, and survival, this collection offers an intimate meditation on the veteran experience and the human capacity to endure. The voice is contemplative yet grounded, carrying both the weight of lived experience and the possibility of reconciliation with the past.
Blending personal reflection with powerful imagery of nature and landscape, The Weight of What Remains stands as a thoughtful work of contemporary poetry that speaks honestly about war, memory, healing, and the search for meaning after conflict.
This collection will resonate with readers of war poetry, literary poetry, and reflective contemporary verse who seek writing that explores both the scars of history and the enduring hope for peace.
