Description

Jenny Bornholdt is the major New Zealand poet of her generation. Her new Selected Poems provides a full representation of her work through nine collections and nearly thirty years. Favorite short poems like 'How to get ahead of yourself while the light still shines' and 'Being a poet' are here alongside vernacular anecdotes like 'Then Murray came' and powerful long poems like 'Confessional' and 'Big Minty Nose' from her award-winning collection The Rocky Shore. Filled with the lyric beauty, wit and feeling for which Jenny Bornholdt is renowned, Selected Poems will be essential reading for years to come.
