1 y separately published work icon Snail Mail Cursive James Walton , Port Adelaide : Ginninderra Press , 2023 25746734 2023 selected work poetry

'James Walton handles words like a jeweller handles a blue diamond. In each of his books, we are transported into a linguistic heaven. Snail Mail Cursive is no exception; an eloquent, gorgeous collection, in which one is invited into a private world made universal. Whether the subject is life, death, authors, songwriters, landscape or animals, he finds the cutting edge of a reflective language, burrowing deep within our shared and singular experience, enclosing us and reaching for more, within and out of his meticulous, inimitable prism.' - John Maxwell O'Brien
