Seraphim

By Alistair Lesley

Seraphim is a collection of poems consisting of two long poems, and 40 traditional poems.The first long poem is called Memoirs of a Demon, and it explores the universe of an Italian man living in XIIth century northern Genoa and Venezia as he makes a pact with the Devil out of a broken home, much like the Faustian legend, to attain legendary strength, wit, and charisma.The second is Seraphim, which tells the story of the love between a Seraph, as fabled by Dante's Divine Comedy, and a mortal poet.This collection of poetry is exclusively traditional, with meters borrowing from Russian poets such as Pushkin to Lesley's experimental stanzas.
