Australia's greatest and best-loved poet, Les Murray (1938-2019)
was awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry at the nomination of
Ted Hughes (1999) and won the T.S. Eliot Award among many other
distinctions. He is a poet of deep environmental commitment: born
and raised on the land, he died at his farm in Bunyah in New South
Wales. Continuous Creation is his last major offering, compiled in
his final years at Bunyah and found there after his death. 'There
is no poetry in the English language now so rooted in its
sacredness, so broad-leafed in its pleasures, and yet so intimate
and conversational,' wrote Derek Walcott in the New Republic. This
last book, like his earlier collections, is many-toned: he is a
comic writer, a satirist, elegist and hymnodist. He is a
celebrator. He is a rainbow.
