The collected poems of Australian writer, Shirley Richards, from 1980 to 2020. The poems are all drawn directly from her life with humour, sensitivity and nostalgia. Shirley has presented a selection of her poetry in this volume after co-authoring two prior books of poetry with local poets. She’s written feature articles, short stories and even advertising jingles, however, poetry remains her favourite form.
