Description
Dennis Haskell's first UK publication is a selection of poems from three full-length collections published in Australia. Closely-observed, lyrical, Romantic, humorous and above all fiercely honest, Haskell's poetry deals with the ?ordinary?- childhood, parenthood, love, sex, politics, friends, families, the sun-drenched landscape, the flash flood - in an extraordinary way. This is a powerful and memorable collection from one of Australia's most distinguished poets.
