Read The Best Australian Poems 2013 Storyline:
'What characterises Australian poetry now is its variousness ... Here are collage poems with a confessional impulse, short short stories, late surrealist couplets, poems that weave satire and lyric together, fragmentary essays in epistles, metaphysical pastorals, epic narratives glimpsed through keyhole lyrics, and lyrics that explode the idea of what a lyric can say, and be.' - Lisa GortonThis engaging collection presents the outstanding Australian poems of the last year – a fascinating array of voices and styles, subjects and moods.
