Our small boar floats out and away across a canvas stretched to the eye's edge where the lake is nailed and painted.

With quiet assuredness these exceptional poems circle intimacy, illusion and perception. Finnish and Australian landscapes figure alongside art and the imagined, overlapping and interleaving. The poems are a luminous and curious reconnaissance of these spaces and relationships, returning to ideas of leave-taking and beginning, and often unfolding in forests or near water. Ironic, sombre and playful, Water Mirrors is a dazzling debut collection, shot through with tenderness and wit.

'At once domestic and cosmic, these poems 'burgeon like ferns in bitumen', modest yet extraordinarily forceful, ruled by a gentle but masterly technique.' Justin Clemens
