Description
Bruce Dawe has all too often been dismissed as an "Ocker" poet - a man who writes verse that is engaging but lightweight. This book takes issue with such a view. Using aspects of literary theory and a careful analysis of Dawe's life and times, it shows how his poetry enriches our enjoyment of our language and our society. This book should be of interest to critical readers of Australian poetry and literature.
