A beautiful young woman walks into Hoad's gallery to admire a jade vase, and Hoad's life changes forever; Ray watches an insurmountable horror take place and wreaks simple and profound revenge; after her paraplegic father dies, a middle-aged woman finds herself in a solicitor's office, cataloguing her memories... In the pages of Hoad and other stories, quiet and complex yearnings for change and transformation are revealed in sometimes mysterious, sometimes fantastical, but always surprising ways. Sarah Passingham's debut collection is beautifully written, and she makes even the everyday actions of three people's lives seem elegant.
Small Grass is an environmental poem in the female voice of grass, spoken in idioms as varied as the many different types of grass. She witnesses the world, and records its evolution through her relationships with the creatures with which she shares the planet; in particular her complex engagement with humankind.
Dad's slideshow is a sequence charting a family's ancestry over a lifetime. Di Slaney's deft and evocative poems are testimony to what survives long after the events recorded in a family album. She writes movingly about relationships, tracing links to the past which inform our understanding of the present.
