✦ Synopsis

Structured in seven sections with poems written in the period between 1962 and 2009, this collection showcases the work of iconic New Zealand poet, political activist, and impresario David Mitchell. Literate and amusing, this compilation, which assembles widely scattered poems in one work for the first time, reintroduces Mitchell to a new generation. Drawn from magazines, journals, and private papers, Mitchell's work presents afresh the lyrical, intense rhythm of this antipodean hipster. Poems featured include β€œat pakiri beach,” β€œmad dog errol,” β€œnight through the orange window,” and β€œpoem to my unborn son.”
