'The Opposite of Grieving brings together the talents of three poets who collectively run the publishing outlet Drunk Muse Press. There the similarities in their theme and style end. Hugh McMillan's poems are mostly lyrical meditations on a father's relationship and travels with his daughters, while Neil Young's satires rewrite and reimagine Greek myths with a contemporary twist, and Jessamine O'Connor's selection explores a gamut of responses to loss and bereavement. Each poet's work is characterised by an angled approach that causes the reader to re-examine expectations.
