When Peter Porter died in 2010 his reputation as one of the
greatest Australian poets had long been settled. Chorale at the
Crossing gathers together the work Porter completed after the
publication of his widely-praised final collection Better than God,
and shows a remarkable and capacious mind - apparently furnished
with half the contents of Western culture - still working at full
tilt, despite the imminence of his own passing. Chorale at the
Crossing contains love poems, comic excursions, and meditations on
art, death, music and nature, all written with Porter's phenomenal
technical facility and immense good humour. Chorale at the Crossing
is the last word from one of our wisest and most compassionate
poets - and is, quite simply, necessary reading.
