From the intrigue of his earlier poetry in fatalism and the mysteries of character, Alan Gould's interest has moved to music. In many of the poems in this book, the folk songs or the homages to Vaughan Williams, his enquiry is one of synaesthesia: What is it we see when we hear? In meditating on this, the poet prefers the crisp, accessible, narrative voice to the philosophical. Here are ballads and celebrations, homages to past authors who have been his spiritual companions-Graves, Yeats, Shakespeare, and tributes to the Finnish resistance to Soviet aggression in 1939. The volume's title poem is a commemoration of the extraordinary and unknown Australian street dancer of VJ Day 1945. (Series: UWAP Poetry) [Subject: Poetry]
