Memories of Europe, regrets at the absence of 'friends, fugitives and lovers', dominate the opening section, and recur later when the physical scene before the poet is Mount Cargill and Otago Harbour. The feeling is lyrical, the structure informal, the clues are there to be followed into layers of resonance and meaning.New Zealand poetryNew Zealand poetry.821Wedde Ian1595482Paul Joanna479911MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910823884303321Spells for coming out4035142UNINA
