The Man From Snowy River
ISBN: 9781514351741 / Angielski / Miękka / 150 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. It is not so easy to write ballads descriptive of the bushland of Australia as on light consideration would appear. Reasonably good verse on the subject has been supplied in sufficient quantity. But the maker of folksongs for our newborn nation requires a somewhat rare combination of gifts and experiences.

Here Be Dragons
ISBN: 9781922186706 / Angielski / Miękka / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Dennis Greene's poetry is meditative, wry and questing, with surprising eruptions of strangeness. It is built deftly and surely, grounded in subtleties and nuances of crafting and structuring; individual poems gather together as a greater tonal architecture. Literary shades such as Yeats, Wilfred Owen and Blake provide points of engagement or departure; as do figures like Magellan, Churchill, Darwin. Shakespeare murmurs ever-present in the wings. With curiosity and insistency Greene finds poems hidden in the light and shade of the everyday - in husband and father-hood, domesticity, the West...

Chorale at the Crossing
ISBN: 9781509801695 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When Peter Porter died in 2010 his reputation as one of the greatest Australian poets had long been settled. "Chorale at the Crossing" gathers together the work Porter completed after the publication of his widely-praised final collection "Better than God," and shows a remarkable and capacious mind apparently furnished with half the contents of Western culture still working at full tilt, despite the imminence of his own passing. "Chorale at the Crossing" contains love poems, comic excursions, and meditations on art, death, music, and nature, all written with Porter's phenomenal technical...

Happiness
ISBN: 9781742586861 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Martin Harrison (1949-2014) prepared and delivered this final manuscript at the end of a prolific creative life. With the vulnerability of a lover, the poet peels back one cover of truth after another; reckless for the evidence of the senses, he sifts light, sound, and smell. Poems like the skin of a world: breathing, walking, touching. Martin Harrison's culminating poetic achievement is a crossing over - stylistically, thematically, emotionally. Mapping the tragic chiasmus of love and death, it finally asserts the transcendent power of poetry to bear witness, to join us in a greater...

Anonymous of Troy
ISBN: 9781922186683 / Angielski / Miękka / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Following a long creative practice of the sonnet (La Lecon d'Otilia, 1995), Anonymous of Troy inaugurates a new exploration of doubleness and overlay in terms of place, time and feeling, sustained by an equal doubleness in terms of form and language. The scene is Canakkale, Turkey, facing Gelibolu on the other shore of the Dardanelles. But Gallipoli is a piece of ANZAC peering through the mirror of Port Jackson. The scene is Abydos facing Sestos, where Hero is still waiting for Leander. But the scene is also Truva, facing the infinite a few miles south, where Johnny Anadolu got the better of...

Behind the Masks: Gwen Harwood remembered by her friends
ISBN: 9781760410209 / Angielski / Miękka / 84 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Surprising personal glimpses of the eminent and enigmatic Australian poet 'I wonder sometimes if the literary pests are writing memoirs: "The last time I saw her she was pale and sick but smiling bravely."' So mused the dying Gwen Harwood in a letter written a few months before she succumbed to cancer. Nearly two decades have passed since she wrote that, but no memoir or biography of the loved and estimable poet has yet appeared. While her poems and the two published volumes of her correspondence enable us to hear her speaking about herself and her life, and people and things that...

CRADLE MOUNTAIN & VIETNAM INTERVENTION by Paul Smith Illustrations - John Adam In 1970 an Australian poet, Paul Smith, read in a newspaper of the death of a young fellow-poet on Cradle Mountain in Tasmania.

Moments
ISBN: 9781922186737 / Angielski / Miękka / 174 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. 'When I listen to Bach, I seem to turn into a fish'. "Bach (Pau) in Love." 'We forget because we want to live. We forget because we live in hope for a better life. It's this wretched hope that demands that we forget the unforgettable'. "The Last Smile of Graf Tolstoy." These stories explore the nature of love, loss and memory: central to them is the uneasiness the narrators feel about their place in the world. A critical moment in the life of each narrator illuminates these themes in remarkable ways. For instance, in the story "Walter Benjamin's Pipe" the narrator wants to comprehend that...

An Elegant Sufficiency
ISBN: 9781517747749 / Angielski / Miękka / 70 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "I'm drawn to the attractive scope, humanity and acuity of Wallis's vision. His poems reflect wide travel in fact and in imagination. Often entertaining in their responses to appealing poets like Larkin and McGough, or in self-ironising accounts of life experience (in 'Table Tennis', 'Anzac Day', and the splendid title poem), they embody a broad empathy for fellow lovers and explorers of the emotions. 'Honeymoon Bay', and 'The Story of a Life', along with poems invoking David Hockney's subjects, as well as the lives of Oscar Wilde and Alan Turing, give point to the depth, integrity and...

The Apple Tree: Collection of Poems
ISBN: 9781519183132 / Angielski / Miękka / 114 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Many years ago as I was pondering a problem, I felt the urge to pick up a pen and write. Out came something vaguely resembling a poem. At least it was verse that rhymed. When I finished and read it, I realized that from somewhere inside of me had come an answer to the issue that was troubling me. To me it felt like an answered prayer and for many years this is how I meditated. I called these early poems my "prayer poems." Sometimes I would share them with family and friends and often people, especially my mother, would say I should write them in a book as others may also benefit from them or...
