Birthday Girl with Possum - Paperback
Birthday Girl with Possum - Paperback
Description
by Brendan Constantine (Author)
Birthday Girl with Possum is heartbreaking and hilarious with poems reaffirming our youngest conclusions about the world. Known for dreamy abstraction and the emotional ferocity on the page and on the stage, this is a birthday card from the phenomenal world to our wildest selves. No approach to writing (odes, codes, lectures, letters, tests and attendance sheets) is left unexploited as a means to poetry. This is Brendan's second collection.
