Edited by Jamie Grant, Foreword by Phillip Adams:  100 Australian Poems You Need To Know
Book Number: 47826
Hardie Grant Books, Yarra, 20078 8vo. Hardcover. 243pp. Illustrated throughout with etchings by Bridget Farmer. "A beautifully bound hardback that falls open in the hand, it is clearly and expansively designed, and full of fine etchings and drawings by Bridget Farmer. Frustrated by the perception that Australian poetry is dry, inaccessibleand focused only on the country's landscape, acclaimed poet Jamie Grant decided to form his own collection. One that properly encompassed the liveliness of our country's writing and showed that the only thing dry about its poetry was the humour within it. The collection ranges from the early nineteenth century Francis Macnamara and Charles Harpur, through the later years of CJ Dennis and Henry Lawson, right up to the present day of Gig Ryan, David Malouf, Stephen McInerney and Kate Jennings.
