Mike Ladd: Now-Then, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

'Prove that you are a human. Do something lovely or vicious or both.

'A rare and memorable poetry that shines with colour and sensation. But also a poetry of sharp insight, wit and resistance.' - Tom Shapcott

'Few fully appreciate his range and uniqueness as a poet living both in the Australian mindscape, and distinctly outside it ... Ladd is an iconoclast and an icon-maker all at once.' - John Kinsella

'While the poetry always retains a light touch, and is self-aware in the most postmodern of ways, these pieces go deeper than they seem to at first glance and leave a powerful sensation in their wake.' - Magdalena Ball 'Ladd's pace is subtle, his timing perfect. There is a thought-provoking playfulness that is not practiced, but rather intuitive.' - Heather Taylor-Johnson

'Mike Ladd has a wonderful economy to his lines, making the short lyric poem do a great deal in the way of emotional registration and acute observation.' - John Jenkin
