Paperback. Condition: Good. Katherine Bode-Lang's fierce and lyrical poems undertake the reformation of family mythology, place, and loves that each life requires to become its own. As Stephen Dunn notes in his introduction, "One of the classic tricks of actors is when you want to get the attention of your audience, you lower, not raise, your voice.

Old books, weak and torn books, all came to my table-- covers like rags. I undressed them further: removed battered cloth with cuts through the spine and name, down inside joints still holding flapping limbs to well-stitched pages. Once undone, I would fashion a cast--red, green, black, or blue-- cut cloth and bristol board, build a new spine, fasten on the covers with a batch of glue I made that week. The dressing so fitted, I would paint pages back together, layer tissue over tears, splint the bent corners, slip waxed paper under the eyelids of the book. In my windowless room, a ward of old books lay quiet, pinned and drying between bricks and boards. My handwriting later named them, numbered and tagged them, sent them back to metal shelves.

Together, they demonstrate the possibilities and the range of new empirical and electronic approaches to Australian literary studies.…
