Poetry
What happens when an Australian feminist falls in love with an Irish monk? Daring, passionate and forceful poetry about the limits of love and obsession. |
Here is a picture of woman's divided loves, for a love in Ireland and for one in Australia, drawn with rare honesty and compelling strength of observation which involves the reader.
Here is writing not afraid to be vulnerable, not trapped in literary artifice, not reticent about emotion, its hopes, its fears, its withdrawals and assertions, which we all share and which enrich our humanity.
A memorable picture emerges of a contemporary woman, intelligent and able to feel deeply, who is not afraid to feel the incompleteness, the unfinished edges of human love.
- Barret Reid
Reviewers described her first book Filigree in Blood as powerful and commanding, with that degree of integrity which makes one pay attention.
