Time and Motion

Julian Croft's first poems were published in Australian Letters in 1962, and since then he has published five volumes of poetry. This volume is a selection from those books, together with poems from the last fifteen years. His poetry has been influenced by the Anglo-Welsh poet T. H. Jones and the empirical philosophy of John Anderson, together with the traditions of mid-twentieth-century Australian poetry. As the title suggest, his themes are mediations on the physical reality of life and the vagaries of human emotions. He has also published several novels.
