In his eleventh poetry collection, John Jenkins displays a boldness and creative variety, across a wide sweep of subject matter, which should hold great appeal to readers. Here are poems of heartfelt emotion balanced against playful humour, plus jabs of fast wit and satirical asides, plus serious reflection on some pressing political and social issues of our times. There are also long-form prose poems, often of considerable imaginative daring, and also mini poems and shorter lyrics. Many have a lively formal balance and hypnotic beauty. Altogether, Jenkins takes us on a rich and engaging journey, into the heart of modern Australian poetry.
