 Write a review

Features poems that are concerned with navigation and with choice; with how to live in an increasingly urbanised, global, technological world; how to orient oneself as, for example, a woman in a still largely patriarchal society; and with how to make moral choices when the options seem either rich to embarrassment or shamefully narrow.

  Synopsis Details Reviews  
Julie Sheehan draws from nature guides and self-help books, weaves legal argot and street slang, and fills her work with muscle, size, shadows, and nuance (Linda Gregg).
