Sinopsis

A meaty and satisfying selection of the work of one of New ZealandâÇÖs most preeminent and prolific poets, tracing the development of his work from the seventies to todayááâÇÖJohnson is one of New ZealandâÇÖs most accomplished and inventive writers, at one with the word, its power, its airy fitness and everyday solidities, its resourcefulness, its craft.âÇÖáSiobhan Harvey, Winner of the Kathleen Grattan poetry award, 2019áâÇÖThe immense complexity of human relationships, social, sexual and everyday are at the heart of much of MikeâÇÖs best poetry. However, thereâÇÖs an almost equal pull towards the empyrean: the cosmic mysteries of nature and the visible world, the beauty of the birds, trees and beaches which surround him in his longtime home-base, Waiheke Island.âÇÖáJack Ross, editor of Poetry New Zealand (2014-2019)áâÇÖ[Johnson finds] just the right formulation to deliver a descriptive vitalism that is open, alert, tentative, ambulatory, elegant, palpable.âÇÖáDavid Eggleton, Poet Laureate, 2019-2022
