Language: English
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Variously called Australia's first modern poet, the father of modern Australian poetry, and "the master craftsman of them all," Kenneth Slessor continues to be admired in Australia and abroad for a comparatively small body of work. Yet one of his critics, Herbert C. Jaffa, has said that "some of [Slessor's] poems are among the most important written in English in modern literature." Backless Betty from Bondi was first published in 1930 as a poem to the flappers (modern gals) who moved to Sydneys Eastern Suburbs. Introduced by Julian Croft this is its first publication in paperback. Originally published in 1933, an Austral classic! "As In Darlinghurst Nights, it is possible to see in these poems the darker side of the Depression. where the verse shines is in the enjoyment of living. It is a world of externals: clothing motor cars, yachts, aeroplanes, the tatty and the fashionable. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

ISBN 10: 0732299365 ISBN 13: 9780732299361
Language: English
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The definitive collection of work from one of Australia's preeminent twentieth century poets, Kenneth Slessor, drawing from his acclaimed books, Earth Visitors (1926), Cuckooz Contrey (1932) and Five Bells (1939). this selection was first published as One Hundred Poems in 1944 (with the addition of three further poems in 1957), and includes an introduction by Dennis Haskell and an Author's Note. From his historical series, 'Five Visions of Captain Cook', to his memorial to the loss of a friend, the iconic 'Five Bells', and from the tragic landscape of El Alamein, influenced by his stint as a war correspondent and made famous in 'Beach Burial', to the meditation 'Out of time', Slessor's poetry continues to dazzle contemporary audiences. A master of modern verse, Slessor explores the themes of art, death and time, displaying an impressive range: from sorrow to satire, melodrama to poignant intensity. His work still influences and inspires younger generations, and the prestigious Kenneth Slessor Poetry Prize is named in his honour. 'studded with these beautiful jewels of language' - Paul Kelly on 'Five Bells''More than any other writer, Slessor's work turned Australian literature towards the modern' - From the introduction, by Dennis Haskell Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
