'This anthology...is a negotiation of many spaces. That of poets and their work, the idea of "Australia", the idea of being "represented" in a different demographic (America), personal or textual issues with anthologiser, who else is being included (though none outside myself and the publishers have knowledge of this until publication). Vitally, whoat matters is the conversations that arise from the anthology going public, and how the poets and readers deal with this community that has been organically and artificially induced.'

'The hardcover anthology Espejo de Tierra / Earth Mirror: An Anthology of Chilean Mapuche and Australian Aboriginal Poetry, showcases the work of five Mapuche and five Australia Indigenous poets in both English and Spanish translation, and the works of Chilean and Australian Indigenous visual artists.

With introductions by renowned Chilean poet Gonzalo Rojas and University of Sydney scholar and poet Peter Minter, this innovative publication highlights the similarities and links between two ancient and revered cultures.' Andrew Potter
