Product Description
Jordie Albiston is one of Australia’s most accomplished and celebrated poets, and Selected Poems presents a keenly anticipated retrospective of her work. This significant volume offers the reader an enthralling visit to all thirteen of her critically acclaimed poetry collections – many of which have been honoured by national awards.
‘Jordie Albiston’s poems slide through linguistic associations, etymologies, histories and locations. They establish a scale that is at once both atomic and cosmic, harnessing those minutely observed details of elemental love alongside the vast, world-altering consequences of emotional and chemical states.’
