Book Description
Michelle Whittaker's "Surge" is a rumination on home, body, memory, wind, what it is to be hunted and haunted. In After Emergency, Whittaker writes, "three degrees of elbowroom, as/sighing seems to quiet the lighting/for slits that break down the dermal." Body becomes another entity, another shape, an instrument of space. "Surge" is a pilgrimage rearranging views--what is seen, what is remembered, what can no longer be reached. In A Partial Cento of Visual Light, Whittaker writes, "I could have done a Joan of Arc/as the last breath lodged in a man's throat." This may be the moment you start gasping. Begin storing up your oxygen; Whittaker's poems will leave you breathless.

Book Description
A stunning mix of memoir, reportage, fiction, satire, and critique composed by a powerful new voice in poetry. Alison Whittaker's BLAKWORK is an original and unapologetic collection from which two things emerge; an incomprehensible loss, and the poet's fearless examination of the present. Whittaker is unsparing in the interrogation of familiar ideas - identifying and dissolving them with idiosyncratic imagery, layering them to form new connections, and reinterpreting what we know. 'Alison Whittaker's second book, Blakwork is a bold mix of poetry, micro-fiction, memoir and critique, and a follow-up to her award-wining debut poetry collection, Lemons in the Chicken Wire...Whittaker has drawn on the strength of past generations to become a strong blak woman in contemporary Australia, and readers are gifted her insights into growing up blak. With a unique style of writing, she bravely unpacks themes such as colonisation and Aboriginal rights in Australia.' -- Karen Wyld, Books+Publishing

Book Description
Ray Whitaker blends the poetic genius with words and his creativity as a photographer in this, his second book. The power of a great poet is the ability to open a different window on the universe for each reader. Within these pages there is a delightful diversity of images ranging from profound questions on creativity in "Where Did It All Go?" to some lighter pieces such as "Rudolph's Stall" and the downside of elfdom. "Little Boys Turning Over Rocks" and the perfect counterpoint in "Old Man at Dusk" provide an awesome poetic essay of life when taken together. Many of the poetic essays within these covers explore relationships with each other and ourselves. Some of the most sensitive images are found in the lines about dogs! Others are truly inspirational and thought provoking. These are delightful vignettes of life and living; a few are personal reflections shared, others could well be scenes from the reader's life story. Together these images Ray has shared with us could be considered road signs on the individual journey each of us is traveling. Thanks Ray. --- Hank Bruce
