Soft cover. Etat : As New. 1st Edition. Softcover volume, measuring approximately 5.75" x 8.25", is like new. 134 pages.

It foregrounds a search for healing and acceptance - at times in the face of intolerable facts, as in a sequence on the life and tragic death of Leo Seemanpillai, a Tamil refugee to Australia. The title poem is based on paintings by Dena Kahan inspired by the "Glass Flowers" exhibit at the Harvard Museum of Natural History.". …

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In Glass Flowers, Diane Fahey explores many kinds of space the enclosed spaces of rooms, art galleries, hospital wards, prehistoric caves, the airy, flowing spaces of gardens, and the sky's infinite life. Her intense engagement with the natural world moves in new directions, 'as we approach the summer years'. While some poems convey the freedom of the present moment imaged by the long glide of a kelp gull, 'a yielding, shaping gesture' others invoke the uncanny, as in 'Unearthly' where clouds at sunset, photographed from a space station, send out into space thousand-mile shadows / cutting through that cold radiance, / probing the void. Fahey also directs her gaze at various kinds of creativity in particular, paintings that explore the inner life of rooms, and self-portraits built from coils and surges of / colour incarnate. The title sequence, based on paintings inspired by the Glass Flowers exhibit at the Harvard Museum of Natural History, combines a far-reaching imaginative ambit with an accent of contemplative calm:And the long stemsseeminglylit from within they too know the touchof sky-shine, the quixoticlife of clouds.Lets call itthe provisional sublime.Finally, A Death in Winter, a sequence on the life and death of Leo Semanpillai, a Tamil refugee to Australia, brings forward a tragic narrative of oppression endured to the furthest limit of courage and hope, one that is emblematic of our times.

Twilight summer.- 'Breath' A House by the River is also, in part, a record of the poet's creative life, sustained by the worlds of art and nature. Along with the garden surrounding her mother's house, Fahey celebrates the wider natural environment of Barwon Hears, opening out - as in Sea Wall and River Light - large perspectives of river, sea and sky, with the presence of birds an unfailing inspiration. But the central power of the book lies in its engagement with the mysteries of healing and spiritual resilience, as Fahey witnesses to the courage and grace of her mother's last years, so leaving a memorable portrait of her. What would I need to know, to wear sunlightas richly, sparsely, as you do now:your face tilted to receive the wind's balm;that look of earthed serenity; bodypoised as a cormorant's, wings outstretched.- 'Garden Portrait' Diane Fahey is one of Australia's foremost poets.
