This New & Selected Poems is a substantial and long-awaited compilation from one of Australia's most accomplished poets, a retrospective spanning more than thirty years. The New Poems section, 'Towards the Equator', represents Alex Skovron's sixth book-length collection and signals a return to the formal variety that has been a hallmark of his work. As always, a distinct Eurocentric sensibility sits alongside an engagement with Western art and culture. All six collections are characterized by close attention to craft, versatility of tone and technique, and a seriousness of intent seasoned at times with wry humour or playful wit. |
