Product Description

“Duncan Hose treads the lesser-known path of maverick Australian poets such as Norman Talbot, John Watson and Javant Biarujia—that is, like all good must-read poets, he invents a new language, full of playful disguises and serious intent, reaffirming Baudelaire’s view that only the human-made is beautiful.”—Gig Ryan

REVIEWS

THE AUSTRALIAN

“Has there been an Australian poet as troubadourish and piratical as Duncan Hose? In Bunratty, Hose single-handedly reinstitutes (an imaginary) Ireland­ as the mother of the poet-ratbag-leprechaun: or pretends to. And this is fair enough if you think how many Irish were forced to come here and imagine Ireland from then on.”

MICHAEL FARRELL, The Australian
