AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The poems in Knuckled range from the flooded towns of the Snowy Mountains to the burnt-out landscape of Victoria to the holiday beaches of coastal NSW. A sequence set in Sri Lanka compares the poet's and her grandfather's different experiences of Asia - other poems pursue this experience in Cambodia, Vietnam and Indonesia. But it is the suburbs of Western Sydney, where the poet grew up and now works, that is her particular territory, with its mixture of voices and perspectives rendered all the more intensely for the compression and understatement with which they are presented. Knuckled is Wright's first collection of poetry. [From the publisher]
