Produktinformationen "Canberra Light"

In this, his fifth full-sized collection, Paul Cliff evokes thecity of Canberra and surrounding region, where he has lived for the past 20 years. The poems work via characteristically wide-ranging moods and voice registers, from lyrical and elegiac to narrative and comic. They also deploy a variety of forms, from sonnets and odes to fables and epigrams, underlain by seductive rhythms and arresting metaphor. The capital’s festivals, institutions and monuments, everyday street life, suburbs, and lakescape are investigated, while the more distant terrains of Weereewa (Lake George), Namadgi, the Monaro, the Snowy Mountains, and the South Coast of New South Wales are also evoked in engaging and often striking terms.

Put Out More Prayer Flags
In this, his sixth full-sized collection, Paul Cliff explores the themes of Faith, Grace, Hope Fragility, Responsibility, Devotion-Privilege, Relegation, Betrayal & Loss - in multifarious aspects and across an array of personal and historical situations. These range from the title poem's iconography of prayer-flags flying in the family back garden, to respectful approach to playing the piano, considerations of the fraught plight of zoo animals during the Battle for Berlin, the demise of an old Pilot Station; historical topics such as the latter day disinterring of bodies from the Franklin Expedition, and the musing of an Inquisitor investigating nuns; wry and/or beautiful takes on crocodiles, blue tongue lizards, quolls and whippets, through to reengineered bucolics fancifully reconstructing Burke & Wills. and contemplations on degeneration of the Darling River.
