Dobson, Rosemary2017-04-182017-04-18b1200234http://hdl.handle.net/1885/115139In choosing the poems, stories, and essays in this volume, its editor, Australian poet Rosemary Dobson, has sought works that reflect the ideas and ideals challenging the imagination of contemporary Australian writers. Her authors look to the past, finding there material relevant to today or recreating a nostalgic time gone by. They look also to the present, at the perplexities of modern life. The poets, both those of established reputation and those of fresh young talent, look to the local or the international scene, both time past and time present. In their works gathered together here are the authentic voices of Australian writers, voices that are serious and sad, bitter, ironic and funny, wry, gay and irreverent - voices for all seasons.183 pagesapplication/pdfen-AUAuthor/s retain copyrightAustralian literature 20th century19752017-04-18
