Sobre IBD

'A teacher, a traveller, an observer and a thinker, Sue Cook’s lens is sharply focused, her words well measured. Join 'the unravelling ribbon of road' that winds through suburbia and the outback, through ordinary lives and magnificent moments in nature. Cook’s vivid poetic landscapes of places like the Flinders Ranges and Murray River are richly detailed; and her poem about Balfours’ frog cakes will have every South Australian licking their lips.' - Jude Aquilina 'Sue Cook’s wry voice captures the moment with simplicity and reimages the ordinary with freshness, wit and profound sympathy. The familiar is made fresh as her characters shuffle through a landscape seeking sanctuary. This collection deserves 'a tsunami of applause'.' - Rory Harris

The collection arcs from, at one extreme, the parsimonies of the household, to the transce...

  • One Kiss
    Edward V Bonner
    The very title of Edward V. Bonner's first volume of poetry, One Kiss (Ingram, 2015), suggests some ways in which the poems inside balance the universal with the particular. Most of the poems examine the themes of beauty and risk, pleasure and danger, in the context of one of three kinds of relationships: to romantic partners, to the spiritual world, and to the world of nature....
