Who chooses us to depict the world
by when we lose our grip on it?
Whose ambassadors are we?
In this re-issued and updated collection of poems – which have appeared in newspapers, literary magazines, and anthologies in Australia, the United States, and the United Kingdom – Michele Nayman deals with internal and external landscapes that can be sources of terror but also of calm. She believes that poems can show us where we’ve been and perhaps help us see where we might yet go.
A boat without oars.
Winds toss it this way and that.
Have faith in the waves.
*What You Love You Are *was first published by Neptune Press, Geelong, Australia, in 1977. Republished 2012 by Guardian Press, with later poems added.
