'In medias res is Geoff Page’s twenty-fifth collection of poetry. For many years he has been an omnipresent force in Australia poetry, convening poetry events, reviewing for a wide range of journals and newspapers, and mentoring many of the country’s leading poetry practitioners. Well into his eighth decade, he still considers himself very much in the middle of things, as the title of this collection suggests. It is a characteristic mix of his keen eye, his quiet chuckle and his ruminations on Australian history and politics. Each line is crafted with a skill which makes it look easy, and underwritten with a sense or the deeper meanings of everyday experience, and glimpses of eternal in the everyday.'
