It began with the Battle of Çanakkale. It was hand-to-hand
killing, the physical closeness of its soldiers unmasking the
depersonalisation of the propaganda of war. It was shocking in its
violence and its loss. This Intimate War Gallipoli/Çanakkale 1915
İçli Dışlı Bir Savaş: Gelibolu/Çanakkale 1915 is a book of
poems reflecting the experiences of Australian, Irish and Turkish
men and women during the Çanakkale/ Gallipoli campaigns. Robyn
Rowlands poetry is known for its honesty of feeling, and its
emotional impact. This book is a moving and intimate portrait of
two countries at war, while being embedded in an accurate
historical context. It is bi-lingual for readers and audiences who
are Turkish or English speaking. This is an essential contribution
to the literature on Gallipoli, none of which is currently being
produced in poetic form.
What happens when an Australian feminist falls in love with an
Irish monk? Passionate and forceful poetry about the limits of love
and obsession. Other work by the author includes Filigree in Blood.
