Simon Perril, Books, Fiction and Literature, Beneath, Simon Perril's new collection is the twin to his Archilochus on the Moon, and continues his exploration of the tangled roots of ancient Greek lyric. A nekyia is an underworld story preserving a rite from classical antiquity wherein the living call up the dead, and are questioned about the future. Neobulé was the bride-to-be of the first lyric poet, Archilochus-until her father inexplicably called it off and incurred the most infamous poetic wrath in literary history. The soldier-poet's scurrilous response shamed the entire family into committing suicide. Beneath tracks Neobulé's arrival in Hades; and voices her gradual understanding of shadehood. She may be a chorus of gasps / no lyre can pluck, but can still recall being more shade above / in the mud-brick groves / of kitchens.
