Author: Lily Holloway
Publisher: Auckland University Press
ISBN: 1776710746
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 116
Book Description
Lilting bees and unidentifiable birds, long-division problems and continental cornflakes: three remarkable voices arrive in AUP New Poets 8. In AUP New Poets 8, Lily Holloway, Tru Paraha, and Modi Deng come together to produce a volume of remarkable inventions and intoxications. Lily Holloway leads off with her collection 'a child in that alcove,' using an inventive approach to form to lead the reader into the ordinary extraordinary events of daily life, her poetry filling them with dazzle and dread, questions and memories. Then Tru Paraha takes us inside 'my darkling universe'—a world 'perpetually astral' and 'utterly spaghettified,' a poetic universe of unexpected letters and words and forms, where te reo Maori collides with atomic chemistry. Finally, Modi Deng travels through time and space into the lives of Brahms and backpackers, where uneasy conversations between mothers and children, between 'the subjects and myself,' between Beijing and London, provide beauty and solace. Three new voices, three compelling visions, all bound together in AUP New Poets 8.

AUP New Poets 3
Author: Janis Freegard
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781869404161
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
The latest in the series, this third volume showcases Janice Freegard, Reihana Robinson, and Katherine Liddy, three poets with vastly different yet complementary styles. Freegard writes quirky and often surreal poems about a Wellington inhabited by strange animals, art, and people. Robinson's poems are tropical but gritty, with many set on Pitcairn Island and interspersed with touching lyrics about family and identity in fractured English. Liddy is a promising young poet who has an unusual interest in and an ear for rhyme and rhythm; while some of her poems are texturally dense, she has an impressive range and a pleasing variety.
