Publisher's Synopsis
This Selected Poems by award-winning Australian poet Vicki Raymond is her first British publication, though her work has appeared widely in journals and anthologies. She is an unusually gifted poet in traditional forms, with a telling sense of humour which can be playful or savagely satirical. It is a rare pleasure to read poems of such natural virtuosity, ambitious in theme and wide-ranging in subject matter, yet unpretentious in voice and generally cheerful in tone.
