Book Synopsis Facing the Pacific by : Michael Sariban
Download or read book Facing the Pacific written by Michael Sariban and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 1999 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Facing the Pacific, Michael Sariban explores the uniqueness of place and the possibilities of mystery. Whether exploring the glare and undertow of beaches, the stillness of country, or lovers contemplating the enigma of a clear night sky, Sariban's poetry invites us to explore the deeper currents of our experience. "Only those poets who value silence, who let their words grow out of it, can be 'intense with doubt and feeling', as poetry requires in its deepest levels. Michael Sariban is a meditative poet who writes with 'infinite attention' about landscape and mindscape." - Kevin Hart "Cold in the tropics, Sariban has made himself vulnerable to what the earth, sea and sky have to offer - the shivering wonder of it all." - Kate Llewellyn "His poems are urbane, skilful and various. So many here can be savoured again and again." - Judith Rodriguez "Sariban catches the unexpected moment in alert, memorable language." - Thomas Shapcott

Book Synopsis Fresh News from the Arctic by : Libby Hart
Download or read book Fresh News from the Arctic written by Libby Hart and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 80 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'Resonant and delicate, Fresh News from the Arctic explores the physical and imaginary. This is a collection that investigates what it means to be human, probing into the meaning of life and questioning mortality, myth - both private and known - and the mysterious. At once atmospheric, with a surreal blend of emotion and memory, Fresh News is a fluid and ever-shifting landscape of possibilities. These poems are restless and inquisitive. They echo a desire to forge a voice that is as curious as it is distinctive. These are poems attuned to our tough yet fragile planet. Feelingly, they celebrate its loam and snow, travelled seas, and the inexhaustible theatre of sky.' - Chris Wallace-Crabbe 'These warm, spare poems move exquisitely between memory, imagination and history: from the Arctic Circle to Virginia Woolf, from two fruits and ice cream to kangaroos in Paris. Libby Hart understands that poetry is language on the point of evocation, intent on "murmuring the world, grasping it slowly". She is indeed a poet to watch.' - Lisa Jacobson 'Vivid, strong, sinuous, beautifully rendered. Highly memorable and compelling.' - Mikhail Iossel, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada
Book Synopsis The Possibility of Winds by : Rosemary Huisman
Download or read book The Possibility of Winds written by Rosemary Huisman and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2006 with total page 79 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rosemary Huisman writes from where she is. This does not necessarily mean a romantic concern with self-expression, but it does mean paying attention to her surroundings-natural, social, political. It especially includes paying attention to the language used by other people. The accuracy and clarity of what she aims for is not some objective truth, but it is what is truthful for her, to her perception and understanding. "This is a world wonderfully changed by Rosemary Huisman's fine observation, playful intelligence and true feeling. Her poetry gives us what we need: it helps us recognise ourselves even as it constantly surprises us. A pleasure to read-and read again." - Noel Rowe "I felt a great admiration for how much of the world is lucidly present in Huisman's poetry. Places, characters and remembrances are all made vital and rich in these clear, shapely poems. Her clean approaches and her incisive, guiding voice make her a poet of power and authority. The delicacy and poise of her language is a delight, and her range of interests makes this a dynamic collection. Huisman's poems leap with life." - Judith Beveridge
Book Synopsis Poems for America by : David Rowbotham
Download or read book Poems for America written by David Rowbotham and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2002 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poetry. Back in 1994, when David Rowbotham released his New and Selected Poems, 1945-1993, a flurry of reviews appeared in the major newspapers and magazines remarking on how richly Rowbotham deserved more recognition as one of Australia's major poets of the past century. But if he is the most major of Australia's neglected poets, what is remarkable is that Rowbotham has continued to write sixty years on, in a confident and lucid voice that transcends single continents and cultures. POEMS FOR AMERICA is certain to earn Rowbotham that elusive literary Oscar.
Book Synopsis What Can Be Proven by : Mark O'Flynn
Download or read book What Can Be Proven written by Mark O'Flynn and published by Interactive Publications. This book was released on 2007 with total page 72 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A strange and compelling world is revealed in What Can Be Proven, and yet reading it is like returning to familiar things that we have forgotten. O'Flynn has an elevated poetic voice, but also the capacity for revealing familiar things in a strange new light. From the first poem, we are introduced to poetry with an almost physical presence because each word leaves a weight like the 'imprint of the iron ladder hard against shins'. The book is full of contrasts, there is poetry of great sadness and poetry with great humour. This is what I like about O'Flynn's work, though it makes it a difficult book to write about. If he says one thing, then something else applies too. It is not like Heaney or Muldoon. It is Australian, informed by many voices. - Tony Curtis, winner, Irish National Poetry Prize

Book Synopsis Straggling Into Winter by : Kathy Kituai
Download or read book Straggling Into Winter written by Kathy Kituai and published by ReadHowYouWant.com. This book was released on 2009-01-22 with total page 218 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: how truthful the trees/outstretched and bare this winter/no leaves to clothe them/how honest your nakedness/here beside me in old age. A serene and very human voice emerges from a year-long tanka journal in which the changing seasons reflect the poet's thoughts on illness, love, and world events. The great delight of the tanka is the jewel-like images it produces: how a bowl captures moonlight, willow twigs flaring at sunset, a poet wandering into a fog, pumpkin shoots, playing checkers when the doorbell rings. Poems that chronicle the progress of illness, the black butterfly of cancer, alternate with visiting wild birds and animals and moments of humour, even in the hospital, where crutches are stolen by hospital terrorists, musings on the Israel/Palestine tragedy, and the nature of old age and love. Kituai may be one of those rare writers who reject the idea that illness and death are things that have to be worked through and then left behind; rather, by beginning and ending with winter, she suggests death and loss are where we begin and what we work towards. There's peace in that thought.
