The late Les Murray described Jamie Grant's work as "poems of
scrupulous craftsmanship and unlinking intelligence, poems which
pay acute attention to the contours of experience." This new
collection, which is divided into five discrete sections, focuses
that attention on the twenty-first century world, its office
buildings and hospitals, motorways and wind farms, while also
looking back to characters and events from earlier times. There are
also observations of Australia's natural environment, its forests,
farms, birds and animals. The last of the five sections is a series
of versified thumbnail sketches of historical figures whose
achievements helped to shape the present age. And there is even an
elegy for Les Murray among the other verses.
