He covers an equally wide range of experience: family and childhood, love and jealousy, and quietly metaphysical encounters with the energies of land, sea, sky and weather.\u0026amp;nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe sensibility revealed in these poems is visionary, warm, and often humorous. Here are the best poems produced in the last ten years by a writer committed to a poetry of intensity, complexity and clarity - a rare trio of qualities based on a strong rhythmic life and an ability to go deep in search of the uniquely true image.\u0026amp;nbsp;\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e'These are brave poems that take off into unknown spaces.

Gillett's poetry embraces the elements and our own frailty as we intersect with the world and each other. Whether set in a boy's bedroom or a blustery beach, this poetry allows us to be there, attuned to sounds and textures and the great movements of the human heart.' - Anne Gleeson\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46867092144286,"sku":"ADS-9781925780260","price":24.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781925780260.jpg?v=1779429687","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781925780260","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
