  • Appears in:
    y separately published work icon The Wind-Up Birdman of Moorabool Street A. Frances Johnson , Glebe : Puncher and Wattmann , 2012 Z1881203 2012 selected work poetry

    In this stunning, visionary collection, A. Frances Johnson offers cautionary threnodies that muse on environment and the endurance of theme park notions of the natural, in spheres poetic and beyond. This is a richly varied collection: among moving lyrics of loss are dystopian visions, such as the last living bird with its wings and vocal chords sludged by the oily depredations of Exxon Valdez, hummingbird drones indiscriminately raiding and killing, and hybrid bird-humans blurring the boundaries between nature and culture to survive.

    y separately published work icon Cordite Poetry Review Pumpkin : The Literal. The Visual. The Comical no. 43.1 October Kent MacCarter (editor), 2013 6921886 2013 periodical issue

    'This issue presents eight comics/graphic novelists' adaptations of poems. The points of the exercise are a bit of fun and to explore the quasi-transmedia intersection of the literal and the visual, and how the latter might interpret the former.' (Publisher's blurb)
