AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Grace Perry in Berrima Winter 1974 in ‘Too many mirrors’ writes “I am a hologram/exiled from my own interior”. She is acknowledging her multiple roles and her loss of self. Married to Dr Harry Kronenburg (haemotologist) and mother of 3 children she had a home-based medical practice in Five Dock with her own publishing company (South Head Press) which produced over 20 years of Poetry Australia six times a year. She also played a dynamic role in the 1960s–80s directing poetry workshops and publishing the younger generation of poets, such as Les Murray, and John Tranter. Her longer lyric poems in libre composé form mark her as a great poet so it is no surprise that she was the most published Australian poet in 1968 at home and overseas. It is tragic that she has been allowed to slip out of Australian literary history.' (Publication summary)
