This is an impressive new collection, the sixth by this
Christchurch-based poet, Villon in Millerton presents vivid lyrics
anchored by three sequences. The title sequence imagines a
fifteenth-century French poet, Francois Villon, fetching up in the
isolated and deserted West Coast town of Millerton; another
sequence brilliantly evokes the mysteries of the Indian rope trick;
while a concluding group focuses on the contradictory character of
the nineteenth-century missionary Samuel Marsden. The range of
subjects - from the red admiral butterfly to the attack on Baghdad
- and tones - from meditation to satire - along with the poet's
acute ear and sharp eye make this book always unexpected and
illuminating.
