Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Entering the liminal space of shared custody and societal tropes of the 'broken family', with a blend of poetry, with other forms. This new volume unravels the day-to-day reality of co-parenting, exploring the ways we stay afloat.Exploring the liminal space of shared custody and societal tropes…of the 'broken family', this collection is the follow-up to Stavanger's award-winning Case Notes. A blend of poetry, found text, short-form prose, reportage, and longer poetic non-fiction, this work unravels the day-to-day reality of co-parenting amid growing environmental and class concerns, and the ways we stay afloat.'David Stavanger writes poems of excruciating beauty, associative insight and acute humanity like no-one else I know. From the complexities of shared parenting to the housing crisis, from the corporatisation of everyday life to the alienations of the medical system, The Drop Off lands in the reader's body with devastating and revelatory effect.' -Andy Jackson'The Drop Off raises crucial questions about how and why we are blindly complicit in diminishing our lives in ways that threaten to undermine our capacity to value the very qualities that characterise us as human. Amid the heartbreak and melancholy, the unsettled and unsettling, there is much humour, too. These poems are extraordinary animals. Stavanger has an astute and unflinching eye - and a talent for matter-of-factly corralling mundane everyday details to absurd effect.' -Grace Yee Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Meditations on parenthood, memory, death, the natural world, the fluctuations of pop culture, and the suburban grind with aplomb in a keen observational styleSam Morley's second collection comprises poetry that is image-rich, fusing the sublime with the common. Always committed to observation as… a channel into discovery, You Do You merges meditations on parenthood, memory, death, the natural world and the fluctuations of pop culture and the suburban grind. The primary setting is the home, be it as a father or child or as a person perplexed by the vicissitudes of humanity. These poems start from the personal while remaining detached, and often undulate from the private world into something universal and large.'Poems with grandeur and freshness side by side. With vivid language, Sam Morley shifts easily between the past and the modern so we have our lives anew.' - Yumna Kassab'Morley's poems are precise, intense postcards - no word is wasted. Morley's sharp eye is unafraid to take 'quiet / counsel with God' he gives the reader breathing space, but always sticks the landing.'-Zenobia Frost Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. In her exquisite poems, Marjon Mossammaparast explores the physical experience of being human, bound to four dimensions, matched with the belief we are also spirit beings.And to Ecstasy is a poetic journey through space and time, projecting a transcendental element of reality. In her exquisite p…oems, Marjon Mossammaparast explores the physical experience of being human, bound to four dimensions, matching it with the belief we are also spirit beings. At its core, this work contemplates the desire to move beyond the limitations of bodies, into an expanded metaphysical notion of identity, carried by intuition.Mossammaparast constructs the collection, arranged in three parts, from displaced fragments and mere glimpses. Through the call and response of landscapes and countries, there is the constancy and insistence of reconciliation. This is the language of the exile: not just geographically, but a spirit constrained by the physical seeking return home.Where all that is vibrant vibratesbeyond the sticking place of namesto the borderfields where signs change their value:Split a piece of wood, and I am there;lift up the stone, and you will find me.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. A collection of new work by award-winning poet Ann Shenfield. Delving into family trauma in a post-Holocaust context and informed by psychoanalysis, these poems explore identity and the frailty of the human and physical world.A Treatment presents a poetic reflection of family trauma in a post-ho…locaust context, which is grounded in these times. The poems articulate the past as it intersects with the present, as well as the way the present writes over what has been before, both in human and ecological terms. The writing is informed by psychoanalysis, and the aim of the work is to elucidate a version of truth or to touch on something of the ephemeral. A Treatment is about questions of identity and speaks to the frailty of both the human and physical world in all their incomprehensibility. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The wild secrets of boyhood is where Lloyd Jones sets off in his first book of poetry; intoxicated with images, and invoking dream spaces where language is forever in play.Lloyd Jones was seven years old the first time he climbed high into a grandstand to watch rugby with his father. The experie…nce was baptismal. From his new elevated perspective Jones believed he could see everything that mattered - a field of play that rolled out, green with promise, from suburban New Zealand to the wider world.The grandstand is a guiding metaphor for these questing narrative poems that reach back into childhood and forward into the life of a writer constantly experimenting with form and voice.Jones writes of the wild secrets of boyhood - riding dogs, falling from trees, destroying the class ukuleles, learning to sail in small boats. He is alert to the airless small-town grievances that must inevitably be escaped.As an aspiring young writer Jones travelled widely, testing his identity against difference - places, people, politics and importantly, language.The more recent poems are a re-assembling of coordinates and a return to the local view. The grandstand has long been decommissioned - it's a housing estate now, but the poems are full of air and greenery. Dream spaces where language is forever in play.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Our lucent teeth spark the rainbow dark.Here, we do not use words like love.Instead, we speak with hands that hold as shoulders tusslethe roughhouse rougher.In the absence of daylight,we are just two young men,silent save for giggle and shoe scuff-we do not rouse suspicion when touching.from 'Ni…ght Orchids'-In this volume, Scott-Patrick Mitchell propels us into the seething mess of the methamphetamine crisis in Australia today.

From an unsteady and unsavoury life, we are released into the joy of a recovery made through sheer hard work.Even in the disintegration, the poet points us towards love and carries tenderness every day in memory. Scott-Patrick Mitchell's decades of spoken- word practice has enabled a fine tuning on the page when, for so many readers, we enter into an alien zone of unknowing.Shortlisted in the Victorian Premier's Literary Awards 2023 and the Best Book category in the Western Australian Premier's Book Awards 2023.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. When assembling my work, I assembled myself, laid out on an autopsy table (of sorts). And soft meteorites presented itself as three themes - art, death, and friendship.In soft meteorites Nathan Shepherdson has installed a type of two-way valve that attaches the page to the flesh. Moments are emp…tied of words then refilled with fresh observations. The pulse quietly excludes standard angles for a free-form geometry that collects spiralling perspectives. He sings inside the silence he listens to. Meditations are a material. Sometimes lean and elegant, almost emaciated. At other times the complexities compound themselves under lingua-thermal pressure, moving very fast, jumping ship like a sailor who doesn't even know if the ocean is still there. Wry smiles are laid out like the silver-plated cake forks inherited from your grandmother, tattered velvet a warm home for memories used only on special occasions. Memory and Memoriam are primary yet differentiated blocks by which Shepherdson's body is drawn but not yet quartered. Elastic hands reach into holes that aren't there to find the ones that are.The counterbalance is in the mood and gestures Shepherdson creates, which invite and repel the chaos which parades unnoticed in its endless supply of costumes. The question mark, inverted, bristles added to its profiled dome sweeps it all away with thinking. Falling is the secondary purpose of any cliff small or large. Micro-shadows from dust disturbed form answers and shapes for capture and translation before they again settle into nothing.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. Seeking ways to understand her chosen continent better, Belinda Probert bought a rural property outside of Melbourne to observe the land more closely and learn how to garden differently.How do we understand a country?At a time when many easy assumptions about how we live and how our society func…tions are being questioned there is room for contemplation of a country that is ancient, occupied for at least sixty thousand years, and young, a national federation for only twelve decades. Belinda Probert, a migrant from England sets out to question in words and action how well she understands the landscapes she has seen and the people that have shaped them. She takes with her a set of writers who have asked the same questions, or provided interpretations of our sense of belonging, to test their words against her own emerging views. Wondering how a nation of immigrants can fully settle here she decided she needed to buy a property in the 'country' so she could observe it more closely, and learn to garden differently. Trees fell on her, ants bit her, bowerbirds stole her crops, but from the exercise she discovers much more about soil, trees, water, animals and protecting herself from fire emergencies. Driving back and forth she learns to see the ancient heritage all around us, and rural industries that have destroyed and created so much.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. The poems of re turn are besotted not by the who but the inclusive where of what it is to be alive, and never only to do with humans.What does the world we live in mean to us? The platform of our daily living? Intricate, intimate, deep-time emergent and never, from the microbes of our guts to th…e minerals of the moon, only to do with humans. The poems of re turn are besotted not by the who but the inclusive where of what it is to be alive. Snout beetle, rain drop, these phone-cradling humans, the humpback whales, all of it, even AI, pours through the poems into the Earth we have. The world is not a stage. Lang grapples with the hope that perhaps there are ways to (re)turn to a being and becoming that is consciously, lovingly, a part of it.

Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. By telling this story, Iain McCalman illuminates much about human-animal relations and the tyranny of gender inequality. He reinstates a twentieth century story of a dedicated amateur primatologist and her adopted Vervet monkey.On an East-African hunting expedition in 1909, Delia Akeley, a forty…-year-old American woman, captured a baby female monkey. Delia's loneliness in an isolating patriarchal world, and her long-frustrated desire to adopt a child, had motivated her to nurture the animal. She named the monkey JT Jr and decided to study her interactions with humans.The unique relationship between Delia and JT unlocked Delia's latent talents of research and observation, anticipating both Jane Goodall's chimpanzee writings and Margaret Mead's Samoan ethnographies. However, Delia's love for JT clashed with her husband Carl's obsession to create a temple of African wildlife dioramas at the Museum of Natural History in New York. Nursing Carl's broken body and realising their diverging interests pushed Delia into a breakdown in Uganda, which led to a savage divorce in Manhattan, and the heartbreaking caging of JT in a Washington zoo. Carl's death triggered a long battle between Delia and Carl's widow, who succeeded in obliterating most of Delia's achievements.In Delia Akeley and the Monkey, Iain McCalman uses official records and personal documents to build a story of passionate love and hate among women, men, animals and museums that predates our times but speaks to our present. It illuminates much about human-animal relations and the tyranny of gender inequality, through reinstating an obscured story of a dedicated amateur primatologist.
