Sommario/riassunto |
|
Deft word play, allusion, and quotation meet intense images and stirring rhythms in this compendium from one of New Zealand's top poets. The verse in this demanding body of work represents a step forward-it contains a sense of a wider world beyond the pages and enough substance to yield pleasure over many readings. Lovers of words, verse, and rhyme will find delight in this distinctive collection from a poet further developing her voice and her craft. |
