Dedication to Eric Rolls, Tom Griffiths , single work obituary

''People', declared Eric Rolls, 'must always be given hope.' He was an extraordinary optimist. He was prepared to deliver the hard, grim facts when necessary, but he also wanted to inspire action and guide change, and for that, he knew, we do indeed need hope. Historian though he was (as well as a poet, farmer, cook and fisherman), Eric also believed that 'tomorrow is more exciting than yesterday'. He had faith in the future, and in the capacity of people to meet it; he was a historian whose history had to serve the future for which he was so hungry.' (p. 12)

Some Thoughts on Australian Haiku, Sharon Dean , single work criticism
'How do Australian nature writers feel about haiku, the one poetic form that concerns itself primarily with nature? The 209 Watermark Literary Muster - essentially a conference of leading nature writers, including academics, conservationists, novelists and poets - offers an opportunity to find out. The theme of the 2009 muster was The Nature and Place of Wood, which speakers generally interpreted as Trees.' (p. 51)
